Adult Nonbreeding Elegant Tern Diving
On Tuesday, December 2, 2008 the cruise liner anchored a few miles from Belize City, Belize. First we had breakfast, then we took a boat to Belize City and shopped. I also birded, and saw many gulls, terns and other Diomedeidae, Procellariidae and Laride birds. Including the Elegant Tern which I posted a video of (above.) Anyway we didn't do much because it was dangerous out of the city and tourists weren't recommended to go out of it. Although mom and dad bought me a collection of butterflies and Jesse got a drum made from Bolivians. I think mom regretted it though because he drove us crazy trying to play it! After that we had lunch and went back to the cruise liner. It had to anchor far from Belize because the government of Belize protects the reef by Belize which is the second largest in the world! Uncle Bruce and Aunt Lori went away from the city and had a tour of the the island. By the way they told us it sounded like they had a great time, they saw Herons, Iguanas, Insects and other interesting and rare animals. But I'm glad I didn't go because it was to big of a risk, I really wish Belize and Guatemala could be peaceful. When we got back we just swam for the rest of the day.
Goodbye,

You did very well to capture that video of the tern diving. When you visit places that are not peaceful, it makes you appreciate our country more. Your posts of the trip are very interesting.
Hello,
Ruth-Thank you. I agree, I would never want to move from our free country, Canada. Thank you.
Goodbye,
Birdman
