These birds are very camera shy and as soon as they see the lens pointed in their direction, dive and swim underwater for about 20 seconds, resurfacing a considerable distance away, as this girl did. They are ducks, but they look the closest thing you'd ever see to a platypus. The males have a large, fleshy lobe under their bills and put on an elaborate mating display. |
