Day 8: Sat 3/25

Our last day on Caye Caulker and our last day in Belize. Three of us took an early morning walk south to find a few more birds, then we all walked north to The Split, where a hurricane had split the caye in two years earlier. Then we all boarded the ferry back to the mainland and airport.
Eric, Kannan and I went out Saturday morning to look 
for a few more birds and found the Gray Kingbird.

Off the north end of Caye Caulker, a motor boat crosses The Split,
a channel that separates two previously joined pieces of land that
were divided by the force of a hurricane years before.
