Wildlife List from South Pacific

On each cruise, our Exploration Leaders keep a wildlife list.  I was fascinated by the list from the Spirit of Oceanus' recent South Pacific cruise through Tahiti and the Society Islands, called Island Sanctuaries.  Below, is the abbreviated list and some random photos from the trip.  A nice way to escape winter!
