Foreword: from November 2013 - February 2014, I went on a backpacking trip in South America, visiting Peru, Ecuador and Bolivia.

| Yes I do! |
I wrote about visiting the Galapagos Islands independently, but I also want to show off some of the wildlife I encountered. Enjoy!
 |
| Lava lizard |
 |
| Brown pelican |
 |
| Snuggling marine iguanas |
 |
| Flamingo |
 |
| Sally Lightfoot crab |
 |
| Galapagos penguins - the only type of penguin to live wild north of the equator |
 |
| Blue-footed boobies |
 |
| Baby sea lion, incredibly cute |
 |
| A noble looking male marine iguana |
 |
| Swimming with the sea lions - they seemed to love floating upside-down at the surface to get a good look at you |
 |
| Beautiful turtle |
 |
| I still need to identify this bird |
 |
| Lava lizard |
 |
| Black-tipped reef sharks hunting at night. The bright green colour comes from the lights on the jetty. |
 |
| Wild giant land tortoise |
 |
| Lava gull - one of the rarest gulls in the world, the entire population lives on the Galapagos and is estimated at only 300-400 pairs |
