5-28. Barrow's Goldeneye
Figure 5-28.1: 這是一隻母的Barrow's goldeneye鴨子。
Figure 5-28.2: 難得在這麼近的距離下她還留在原地沒有想逃走。
Figure 5-28.3: 不曉得地上有什麼好東西。
Figure 5-28.4: 鴨子划水。
水鳥是公園裡也很常見的野生動物，雖然大部分人對這通常沒太多興趣。鳥類因為體積小，大都得在很近的距離才看得清楚，但大部分時候在有點距離時他們就已經飛走了。當然，攜帶望遠鏡可以拉近彼此的距離，不幸的是，大家早已經被bison這類不怕人的大型哺乳類動物給寵壞了，懶得多花時間與心思去看這些小不點的東西。
在公園裡的眾多水鳥裡，黃金眼、也就是goldeneye duck還算常見，包括湖泊或是河流都可能看到。公園裡有兩種黃金眼，一種是common goldeneye，而另一種是更常見的Barrow's goldeneye，包括這一次在West Thumb Geyser Basin看到的。只要有近距離看過這鴨子，應該很容易得知為何將之取名為黃金眼。
當時有看到兩隻黃金眼，一隻是頭部呈現藍色的公鴨，不過在較遠的地方，而且一段時間後不曉得跑到什麼地方鬼混去了；頭部褐色的是母鴨，非常合作一直待在岸邊，三不五時還會走上岸。也許是閱人無數的關係，這母鴨對距離的容忍程度很大，不介意讓我一直待在附近照個不停，也順便拍了一段影片。
觀看一下這段影片會發現鴨子雖然默默划水，但其實還蠻容易看到的，不曉得為何大家會覺得鴨子划水看不到，是因為水不夠清澈？觀察角度不正確？還是單純沒認真在看？不過鴨子潛水是真的什麼都看不到，我有試著捕捉這鴨子剛出水的一刻，但難度比選擇題猜答案高太多，試了幾次後決定放棄。這不是什麼珍禽異獸，但這次的觀察還蠻有趣的就是。
