Alfred Hitchcock would have loved this island February 18 2010
When the thriller movie “the birds” was filmed.. Alfred didn’t know about Isla Isabela. It is a remarkable uninhabited island that is only a mile long and wide, but is an amazing bird sancturary. Literally hundreds of thousands of frigate birds nest in the trees and shrubs all around you and the not-so-famous blue-footed-boobie birds nest on the cliff tops. We all took the short hike ot the top of the island and looked down at an amazing sight. Brenda nicknamed the island “the isle of swirling birds.. and swirl they did. I’ve never seen so many birds in flight in one spot. Someone should make a movie.
We will load some photos into the gallery on this site.. but photo’s just don’t do it justics….
