And the only inhabitants are part of the rather small navy base there. The water is so much bluer and clearer then the water in Hawaii. I think given the location, that the debris was placed on/in the skeletons. Transited through the oceans there and never saw much for trash. Those adult birds gotta by really searching far and wide to gather that much trash.

Funny I thought the same thing, it would be really easy to stage photos like that. Not saying those are, but those birds must have baked in the sun for a long time not to have any one notice..
