Moorea, the flowers and sights of this French Polynesian island

This was our first sighting of a Greater Crested Tern, and the pineapple and bananas were surprisingly interesting to photograph. The top of the pineapple can be planted to start a new plant, but it will take about 5 years for it to produce any pineapple. They showed us at the base of the pineapples where future plants were starting… they will eventually stop off, plant themselves, and more pineapples will grow.

 Do you recognize the parakeet flower? 

 The hibiscus? 

The temple tree plumeria? 

 The Red-Vented Bulbul, Chestnut-breasted Mannikin, Pacific Golden Plover and the Zebra Dove?
