And the second installment of our weekend nature shots is in… anyone care to guess what type of ducks those are? Bonus points if you can share a link to more info! Lovely red eyes. One of the kids said they looked “possessed”. I saw quite a few other marsh animals tonight, too. These ducks were the only animals that weren’t skittish. We had an all-day family get-together and drove a long distance to get there… and I’m pooped. Tomorrow we’ll be on our way home. See you in here after we get back.

They actually aren’t even ducks! They are American Coot water birds 🙂

I’ve never seen ducks like that. Now, being the KONOS Mom I am, I’m going to HAVE to look those up.
