I live in the Cypress Creek Community west of Boynton Beach. For the last three days a pair of ducks have appeared in my back yard that I believe are very rare. I did some research, and believe they are West Indian Whistling-Ducks. I have photos. They come up to me when I call and eat out of my hand. I've lived in Boynton all of my life and have never seen another bird like these two. I understand there are only about 10,000 left in the islands.
I need help in idenifying these birds. Where do I go?
