![]() Snowy Egrets in Curacao Good morning all, we had too much going on yesterday and was unable to get this out. Aimee and I took the two puppies to the North side of the island to our little private beach at Canoa first thing in the morning along with Inca and Indi. We wanted to start getting them used to riding in cars and hearing all the sounds of Curacao, trying hard to get them to be good unafraid puppies for their next owners. The puppies had a such a great time at the beach! They chased each other in the sand and dug hole after hole and by the time we left were covered in sand and could hardly move from complete exhaustion. Normally they stay up for around two hours and play and then just fall down and sleep, well yesterday we had them up for five and a half hours on this trip so you can imagine just how tired they were the rest of the day, it was great!
Once we got home I sat around waiting for hours for a call from another possible adoptive parent for one of the pups. Well finally I called them and after a bunch of excuses they backed out without ever even seeing them, I think I was more upset about my wasted day than anything! So we still have two left, Raven and Brave Heart.
Here’s another shot of the Snowy Egrets standing in the shallow salt ponds. These ponds must be full of food right now? I walked along the edge trying to see what they were eating but it was just nothing but muddy looking water and I know it’s filled with brine shrimps and maybe little fish?? Whatever the food source is these egrets along with dozens of other species know about it and are eating like there’s no tomorrow.
We went to a friends school play last night, it was a rendition of Alice in Wonderland done in Curacao style, the costumes like those from Carnival were all hand made and out of this world!!
Well, that’s about it, I am sitting here because of the puppies waking us up at 5:00, I told Aimee to go back to bed. Talk to you tonight, Barry
