Imagine a world of birds.

..and more birds.

Millions of them.

A few are solitary.

But most are birds of a feather that flock together.

It was the once the lair of pirates—with pirate caves and pirate treasure.

And further back into the unknown past, a giant marking was carved into the rocks of this remote island destination—its true meaning and message has yet to be discovered.

The pirates are gone—though their treasure is still being discovered.

As for the birds—the company they keep now include tens of thousands of crabs, and a huge population of seals.

...most of whom are astonishingly lazy.

No humans are allowed on this remote location.

Except for three. Their sole mission is to keep people away, and to guard a valuable “treasure crop.” Many years ago this crop was the basis for an international war. Today, the government will only allow it to be harvested but once every five years.

Tell me the precise name of the location where I shot these images. Also, give me the official name for the “treasure crop” I am referencing. Send your answers to blogcontest@visionforum.com. Give me your answer and your full, accurate name. The first three people to answer the entire question correctly will receive a complimentary copy of R.M. Ballantyne’s masterpiece “The Pirate City.”
