Welcome

Hi, my name is Victoria Grace Avara (Vickie for short) and welcome to my blog. This blog was written while I was stationed in Barbados for 4 years from 2008-2012. I would just write things down whenever I had the time. I would write about my experiences with living in a new country and a different culture. Please forgive my grammatical errors, but enjoy these posts that I wrote during this time. My husband and I dearly love the Island of Barbados and we hope to someday retire to this little island that we called home for 4 short and wonderful years of our life. I hope that you enjoy reading this blog.

Sincerely, Vickie Avara

Falcon!


Isn't he a beauty?  Look at those big talons!  No guessing what he uses them for.  We have seen he and his mate perched high in a casuarina tree for several days now.  Luckily, I remembered to take my telephoto lens on the camera this morning.  They are a type of falcon called Merlin.  Here is a more up close and personal picture of him.
