Happy Mother's Day to my Mom blogging friends.
I have some more Curacao birds from our trip. On this day, hubby and I rented a car and drove around the island. At first it was more like we got lost, we did not know there was a detour and missed a turn. But, this turned out to be a good thing because we found the one of the Curacao birds that was on my wish list of birds to see.
Curacao has wild Pink Flamingos. I have only seen them previously in zoos, being a "birder" zoo birds are just not the same as seeing in them free their own habitat. So to seeing the Pink Flamingos in the wild was on my list of things I had to see in Curacao. Thanks to being lost we found the Pink Flamingos.
Another stop with the rental car was at the Shete Boka Nat'l Park. I was really enjoying the birds at the sugar feeder. Here are a few of the Bananaquits.
A cute Yellow Warbler was also enjoying the sugar feeder.
Above is the Yellow Warbler and the Bananaquit. I had no idea that birds loved raw sugar. One of the park employees dumped more sugar in the feeder so I could watch the birds up close. The feeder at times was filled with all different birds all satisfying their sugar cravings.
I saw this American Kestrel in the park, he was trying to hide in this bush. I guess the Kestrel is seen all over the world? This post should actually be before my last sunset post it all took place on the same day.
I hope you enjoyed my Curacao birds.
