Necker Animals - Feeding time!

Feeding time is always spectacular to witness on Necker, as you can see from this photo of the White Cheeked Pintails and Flamingos on the island.

The white cheeked pintail used to be on the endangered list in the British Virgin Islands. When we started trying to protect them, they were only a handful of pairs left. As you can see they've done pretty well since then!

I wonder if any of you can guess how many birds there are in the photo…
