Revisiting The Plantation, Tobago
 
 
 
     
 
 
Leaving the fast ferry behind in Scarborough, Tobago and with a few hours to spare before meeting the MOTH's at the airport, I asked if we could stop at The Plantation to see if the Anhinga's were still happy in the tree by the main gate. First thing we saw was a happy family of ducks
 
 
 
 
 
Parents and babies. My beautiful Assistant waiting patiently in the weeks' bus
 
 
 
 
Just tuning up was a pair of Brown-bellied Whistling Ducks
 
 
 
 
And proud as can be - The male Anhinga
 
 
 
 
 
As we watched two tried to land at the exact moment on the exact spot - words were exchanged
 
 
 
 
The usual view.........
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
and the not so usual landing sequence
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Then we had an ice cream at Store Bay where you expect to find a cock in the car park and a flowering flamboyant tree
 
 
 
 
A quick chat to a trend setting local and off to the airport to meet Mr and Mrs Walker
 
 
 
 
ALL IN ALL A GOOD START TO OUR HOLIDAY
