Oh no, what did we start? He comes to beg for food everyday… BTW Sandy has renamed him. It’s a cross between the actor & that famous duck. We now crown him Ben Aflac.

What the duck? Saw it in our lagoon yesterday. Just found out it’s a female Hooded Merganser. How does she keep all that hair gel from washing out?
Koa’s Thanksgiving 2010
If it isn’t obvious, I love Koa. I chased her around all night trying to get a good photo of her…oh yeah we got together with family and ate some food too, whatever. Actually it was good to see everyone even though I didn’t get photos of all of them. The food was excellent as …
