Pato Pichichín

This duck is from this area in Sinaloa, and is only found here, a few years ago it was in danger to be extinguish, but the government helped by making boxes on the trees to put their nests. This duck in particular, makes its nest on the trees, not on the floor and when the baby duck is ready to leave the nest it jump from the tree to the floor, from there they follow their parents by foot to the nearest lagoon were they raise them. They are usually found at bird island wich is located in front of the beach shores in Mazatlan, and come to El Camarón lagoon, we are lucky to see them every year in Marina Costa Bonita and use our fresh water lagoon in their way to the Island or El Camarón lagoon. Aren’t they just beautiful?
