Another Skywatch Curacao

I am linking up my Curacao sunset with Skywatch Friday.

Every morning during our vacation, I would jump out of bed and head for the balcony to check the weather and look for any of the birds in the trees near our balcony.


A couple of Tropical Mockingbirds working on their nest. I watched these two everyday from our balcony.


 On this day we arranged an open air jeep tour of the Christoffel National Park . We stopped at various parts of the island. Turbines are found everywhere even in Curacao.

A view of Mt Christoffel, the highest point on the island of Curacao. There are various trails around the mountain and one that takes you to the top for a view of the island.


Can you find the hummingbird at the plant? Not sure what this plant is called but it had a tall stalk and at the top were these yellow blooms.

 After our day of sightseeing by the open air jeep we went back to our room and sitting on our balcony was one of the Troupial Orioles.



Time for dinner and another gorgeous sunset at our resort.


I loved seeing the sun looking so big setting into the ocean.
