Today was a great day, one that everyone enjoyed. We spent the        afternoon in the highlands of Santa Cruz Island and saw many  different types of birds, including Darwin's finches. But the most  beautiful creatures we saw today were the giant tortoises in the wild.  Imagine, these reptiles share their lands with human beings without  apparent concern. I sat for a long time watching the tortoises,  observing how people tried to communicate with them, first trying with  soft words, and then moving onto strange sounds, but never hearing a  response. No sound came out of their mouths, but one awoke and gave a  very loud and hard blow, scaring the person in front of him. In a couple  of months we won't see them here until next year. Then, we'll see the  tortoises once again in the same area, sharing their space and territory  with us. Why can't we share all we have with them?
