Peep a Peeps Visit on Mark's Birthday April 16th

 We had about 20 black bellied whistling ducks today - April 18th.  But on Mark's Birthday 2 days ago (4/16) we had about 100 of them.  I call them peep - a - peeps.  They battled, yelled, and sang for Mark on his birthday.

I wonder every year when the peep a peeps arrive on their migration, and I can never remember.  This year, the large flock arrived April 16th.

200 Black Bellied Whistling Ducks

...or "peep a peeps" as I call them.

This was an EPIC bird day.  We had:

200 black bellied whistling ducks
100 sneetches

but very few peafowl.

The sound of the peep a peeps was insane... the whistling at this level was loud.  I love their calls, I hope the neighbors do LOL.

Whistling Ducks and Mottled Ducks sharing breakfast with the squirrels

The "peep-a-peeps" and brown ducks invaded the squirrel seed breakfast. The squirrels seemed happy to share, and I love seeing the ducks up close :D

Peep A Peep!

Peep A Peep at 0:18.  Naturally since I was recording them JUST to hear their sounds, they were quiet.  Usually it's non-stop peep-a-peep!
