A pair of Australian Shelducks,
Tadorna tadornoides, spotted in a nearby paddock:
A bit hard to see, I'll admit. What about if I zoom in a bit?
The female is the one facing left, with white around her eye. I wonder if they will breed in this area, or if they are just passing through.
Hi Vireya we have a pair of ducks that come back every year and breed,we love watching them especially when they take their babies for a walk xx
ReplyDeleteThey look quite content, so maybe they will stay around. That would be special.
ReplyDeleteWe used to have a mother duck who had babies in one of our courtyards at school. We had to round the babies up and take them to a local wetland. That was my job! I looked forward to that every year because she kept coming back.
