SWFL Eagles 2-5-26. M15, Mr. Personality, BATHES WITH A HORSE, Greeted by the DUCK-DUCK-DUCKS! 🦅🏝️🛁

Описание: ➡️ This is archived footage from 1-10-26 & 1-28-26. I was out of town twice in December, and did not get a chance to edit this.

Video opens with M15 at the pond. It seems everyone likes to show up when M15 is at the pond 😉😂! A Muscovy Duck (drake/male) swims over to check him out, shown in 3X speed. A female Muscovy duck (hen) flies in, landing by M15 at the pond. Two more Muscovy Ducks, a hen and drake, join the first hen by M15. The three wander off toward the cove area. The male is the large duck on the right, following the hens. The three ducks fly to the office oak, a common perch spot for them. Muscovy Ducks, with large claws on their feet, are perching birds.

The second segment covers M15 at the pond for sips and a dip. A pasture horse, Bud, joins M15 at the pond. Bud gets sips, then wades in for his dip. How cool to see M15 bathing, and Bud getting his dip, at the same time! M15 flies to the DSPS (drive side pond snag) to dry after his bath. Time stamps below, if interested.
