Red-billed Tropicbird

While in Manzanillo in February, 2019, I hired a boat to take me on a short excursion to circle a nearby small island used by many nesting birds, as well as to circle the lagoon near my lodgings.

The island has countless birds, however they were difficult to photograph, as the island was hundred of feet tall, and most birds were circling high above.

This photo of a Red-billed Tropicbird (one of my favorite birds!) was about as close as I could get:
