YOU'VE BEEN FORWARNED.

Aren't all these warnings enticing!?

There's still time to turn back!
Don't.
It's not all that bad, not really.

Let's take it slowly.

What d'ya see?

The ship,
the sea,
the sky...,

THE BIRDS!

Sea Bird Habitat?
Yes, with plenty of flying birds. (those smudges in the sky)

White cliffs of Dover?
No.
Dark volcanic rock?
Yes.

Have you guessed
where this is
going?

Look at those pelicans roosting. Isn't that a wonderful sight?

"Their beaks can hold more than their bellies can.
But their bowels don't know 'bout the toilette plan."

Gee, what's the white streaks on the rocks?

Let's cut to the chase, if not the cheese. Avian hygiene ain't to the highest standards. Don't soil the nest; soil the rest!

Something frufru atop the lightening rod.

Hey, guano's good!
It helps plants grow.
Let's not be too quick to be squeamish
about a little organic fertilizer, even if
at times this island stinks for miles due to the
high concentration of bird nitrates.

Still, if that bit didn't gag ya, the next pic down might.

That strange decoration atop the lighthouse lightning rod? Not good.

Have you the stomach for the sad, sad truth?

A bird that learned a lesson the HARDEST way.

Opice's awed:
a pelican on the lightening rod -- shish kebabed!

How it did it, no-one knows.
Perhaps it tried to add guano.

(And fatally misjudged the target!)

Talk about bad judgment. The next foto is the worst of all. It exposes the truth behind
Monkey's travels as experienced by those of us on his unpaid staff.

Opice cautions, "Lukáš, don't take my picture when I'm working. Luke, I'm warning you! You snap that foto and I'll make a mess of your dorm room!
....
"What do you mean, who'll notice the difference? I'll tell you who'll notice--you!
First thing I'll do is shovel a path to the window. Then out that window goes all your clean clothes: both the T-shirt AND the tennis shorts!
....
"Ok, so their your roommate's clothes. Then I'll do something worse. I'll delete all the numbers in your cellphone when you're not looking.
....
"I figured that'd get your attention. So no picture, right? Ok. Dobré kluk. [good boy]

Opice turns his attention to another, "Hey, stair-master. Can't you climb any faster? We've got a boat to catch back to the mainland. Do I have to do everything?"

DISCLAIMER:
Nothing on this or any other Monkey webpage should be believed about his nephew Lukáš. Luke's dorm room is no dirtier than the average undergraduate's (scary, huh?). He doesn't sleep in class (at least not to excess). And his essay writing ain't half as bad as Monkey pretended on the SB intro page (maybe 10-15% as).

The Lukeman is always a Dobré kluk and Monkey loves him! (at least 100% to excess, huh?)
