Laughing Duck Bed and Breakfast

Our feathered guests checked out of their "suite" yesterday morning for their first flight. Hope they come back next year! See the 2 videos of the little Chestnut Backed Chickadees. https://www.allaboutbirds.org//Chestnut-backed/lifehistory

While our BNB is closed to humans, we are happy to report that our chickadee family is nesting in the house on the fir tree this year. Simon our cat donated some of his old fur from his latest brushing and I placed it in the lilac tree for nesting birds who helped themselves and were seen flying off with the clump almost as big as the bird itself.

Laughing Duck is closed indefinitely. In light of the Covid19 situation we are asking people not to come to Bowen Island (even for the day) and to stay at home as required by our Provincial Health Authorities. Covid19 is already present on Bowen and perhaps is in the community. Our Island is small with few grocery and medical resources for all the people who live here and are staying home. After this is over please come back again and we will welcome you. Stay safe and connected with family and friends.

The welcoming committee.
