Seeing Double

“Seeing Double”
Judy Royal Glenn Photography 

While I was birding on Grand Cayman Island, our guide took us to a pond where we found a female West Indian Whistling Duck and her three ducklings.

These ducks are nocturnal and feed mostly in the evenings, yet the Lord had them out feeding the morning I was there!

The Bahamas National Trust website says, “The West Indian Whistling Duck is the largest and rarest of the 8 species of unique whistling ducks found throughout the worlds tropical regions.” They are also one of the two rarest ducks in the Western Hemisphere. I am glad I had the opportunity to see them.

Don’t you just love their white feathers with brown polka dots?
