Meet Some of the Locals

My Cozumel coverage is quickly coming to an end, though I still have a couple of stories yet to share with you before my 2021 trip is done.

Because Isla de Cozumel is a tropical island, there is all kinds of wildlife found all over the island. There is a wide variety of birds and wild animals. We did not see the boars or any of the other mammals this time around, because we were not walking around as much as usual. However, we did see a lot of birds and a few iguanas and geckos. You will find these everywhere you go, all over the island.

We saw quite a few pelicans, mostly from our hotel, though they were flying all around us everywhere too.

We also saw these little black birds all around. They were actually kind of pesky, especially when they were begging for food.

As we went further south, towards Punta Sur, we came across a lot of buzzards flying all around us.

There were also some frigates and other birds too, though we did not see as many of those this time around.

And of course, there were a lot of sea gulls too.

Besides the birds, we also saw some iguanas and geckos.

It’s always fun to see how the locals live, especially the animal kinds. 🙂
