Alaska Sea Life Center in Seward, Alaska – 2010 May 01 A week later… Does Bering the long-tailed duck remember me? Was the attraction the green coat? (Another woman in the same color proves that’s not the case.) Bering was reunited with Tussock, his more colorful brother, during this week. It seems there was a bit of sibling rivalry over my attention. You may notice a group dance for who is closest and I did try to give Bering the benefit. Bering taught his brother to play hide-n-seek with the hooman loon. The rhinoceros Auklet cannot be ignored. It follows… just more quietly! And the Tufted Puffins, Horned Puffins, King Eiders, and other seabirds make grand appearances and noises. The background noise is rock scrubbing and hoses running while two staffers clean the aviary. Thanks to B for documenting this reunion.
