Rota Is. This fascinating tree is reputedly the "biggest tree in the Marianas". According to some legends, the Pacific Banyan -- Tronkon Nunu -- is home to ancient Chamorro spirits or taotaomo’na.

anita363Descripción
Very docile, once they settled down. Tended to drop to the ground if disturbed (perhaps a defense mechanism against bats?), but happy to perch on a finger. Picked this one up and placed on this leaf for a nice photo op. Wingspan 8 cm.

jakobDescripción
Very impressive beech trees, which are several hundred years old. They are the remains of an old "Hutewald" - an agroforestry system fostering widely spaced oak and beech trees to produce acorns and beechnuts, which in turn fatten wild boar in autumn.
Some of them seemed to grow like Ficus bengalensis: branches bending down to the ground, re-rooting, and from there growing into another beech tree.

I've rarely seem impressive oak trees like these, which are supposedly between 500 and 800 years old. They are the remains of an old "Hutewald" - an agroforestry system fostering widely spaced oaks to produce acorns, which in turn fatten wild boar in autumn.

What caught my attention is that huge pair of eyes staring at me like an Owl.!!
They were restless, flying from one plant to another...
I witnessed this scene for at least 5 mins before they flew into a thicket...
I was lucky to get this shot.
