Birds in Tahiti


They say as you get older, you get weirdly interested in birds. And I definitely am a cliche.


Where ever I go, I merrily try to get great bird shots, or shots of interesting birds.


In Moorea, I was skulking around with my camera when not on a paddleboard or in the water.

I quite liked one of the fails....
















In Papeete there was much excitement at our table when a chicken strutted into the restaurant!
I even noticed birds on my book! I have no idea why I've suddenly grown so interested in them...but why fight it?

    The top ones look like different types of gulls.

    My husband has been a birder since around the age of 10 when his teacher introduced him to it. He introduced me to birding when we were much younger, and we continue. We. have met birders of all ages and birders who have a wide variety of other interests. I don’t think it’s limited to old people, though once one is retired, it’s possible to pursue it more single-mindedly.

    Funny, I was in Tahiti and Moorea years ago and don't even remember a bird but I am sure they were there. It is such a beautiful place, so much to see.

      My malware scanner is blocking me from your site. Not sure how to get there. Hope to be linking again soon.

    Beautiful photos! My husband and I were just remarking that we too have found an interest in birds now that we're older... though to be fair that interest was started by my middle son who got big into birding when he was in grade school.

    Birds are fascinating! And yes, I am older. I’ve always had some interest in birds, but being retired I have more time to enjoy them. I enjoyed your photos.
