29 Three Booby Types at Punta Pitt on San Cristóbal Island in Galápagos, EC

Punta Pitt has a unique distinction unmatched anywhere else in the Galápagos: it is a breeding ground for three types of endemic boobies. Although they all live near the top of Punta Pitt, you will find them in different locations. Look for Nazca boobies along the cliffs or inside crevices. The blue-footed boobies will be walking around on the ground. And the red-footed boobies perch in trees and scrubs. This red-footed booby is returning to its nest with a twig.
