This morning there were lots of sea gooseberries and tiny (1-2cm) jellyfish with a cross on them - young moon jellyfish?

Cultural outing

This looks like a good exhibitionThe Codex Leicester a manuscript by Leonardo da Vinci containing his observations on the nature and properties of water as well as other aspects of science and technology

Chart to identify our friends

Identify!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Someone is this close (imagine me pinching my finger & thumb) to having their membership revoked and having a plague of the lovely birds (shown left) rain down upon their demesne every morning at dawn, if they don't refrain from posting non Vico indigenous birds on this blog!

Cuban Blackbird

Picture adjacent shows a Cuban Blackbird.

Is that the same variety of bird from the first picture?

Cuban Crow?

The picture adjacent shows a Cuban Crow ... obviously!! (Sourced from Wiki..) which is a different bird to the one shown in the previous picture.

Any other suggestions for the identity of the bird in the first picture?

Identify?

Hint: Photograph was taken in Cuba
