The windy ridges on the southwestern side of the island are isolated from predators and provide perfect launch pads for the adult\u2019s fishing sorties into the coastal waters.<\/p>\n<p>Brown pelicans are common along the Pacific coast from the northern United States to Peru and are often seen skimming the waves parallel to shore against the horizon. They nest at several sites in Costa Rica with the biggest colony on Guayabo Island, finding nest atop the trees in the northern reaches of the island. The Southern cliff is the region where about two hundred pairs of frigatebirds breed and residence at Bola\u00f1os Island. The most concentrated nesting activity occurs in January and February, but the frigatebirds have a prolonged season and can be seen from November to June.<\/p>\n<p>The island itself is an oval-shaped rocky mound. Its rugged terrain consists of numerous layers of sedimentary rock that are approximately 40 million years old. The island has white sandy beaches on the eastern tip with mounds of seashells and clams. At low tide it\u2019s possible to walk round the island and see several species of crabs that live and mate here, specially the large sized land crab. The waters around the island are a beautiful clear blue and support abundant marine life.<\/p>\n<p>Isla Bola\u00f1os National Wildlife Refuge is one of the driest regions in the country receiving around 1.5m of rain annually. The low rainfall results in poor quality soil. The scarce vegetation is made up of stunted forest, which is very thick and difficult to penetrate. The forest, which completely loses its leaves during the dry season from January through March, consists mainly of Paira (Melanthera nivea) and some medium-sized trees which grows almost 2m high on very rock soils with very little organic material, such as Common Frangipani (Plumeria rubra) and Fig Trees (Ficus ovalis).
