Looking out onto Centipede Island off the tip of the northern peninsula in Chaguaramas. A beautiful morning "down the islands".


I can only take credit for the cocoa. They are from my tree and I am a bit of a loss as to what to do with them, so they are posing as decorations in my demerara window.


The corbeaux gets such a bad rap. Rosie has caught his noble profile here and he seems to be deep in thought. These birds are highly intelligent and will bond closely to human caregivers. I have a friend who nurtured an injured baby and released him into the wild. But he continues to visit to be fed and loved and has taken to bringing home his La Basse (our garbage dump) friends. But I will save all of that for a separate corbeaux post on Barbie and Grommet.

Our Gasparee caves with their shimmering pools of water and massive centipedes.



oh these were so lovely, they brought a tear to my eyes :D gonna share it with some friends! And so that is the famous bois cano... we had plenty of them at my old home in st augustine but didn't know the name... i used to play with them :D
