Breakfast Surprise

“Breakfast Surprise”

As I was preparing my back patio to have my lakeside breakfast, a mama and her 13 ducklings decided to swim by. I quickly ran inside and grabbed my camera.

They meandered along the cove eating along the shoreline. My presence didn’t seem to bother them as I followed them.

Seeing Double

“Seeing Double”

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?
