Birding – While Camping – North Lake State Park, Greene County, New York

10,000 Birds

Tongatapu and ‘Eua; Birding Southern Tonga

10,000 Birds

The hotel we stayed on was on the shore, from which you could watching passing seabirds, including serene White Terns , as well as summering Humpback Whales! Tonga is famous for its whales, and there are opportunities to swim with them in the northern islands. Further down the coast Grey Noddies and Brown Boobies nest on the cliffs.
