Thanks, boots. Do you get Pink Eared Ducks where you are? I've never seen as many at our local swamp as I have this year. And oh boy, are they feisty little birds, squabbling and chasing each other all over the place. The sound they make is so distinctive to me now and yet in the thirty odd years we've lived here, I've never heard them before.

Thanks again for the information Resin.

This is a shot from about three weeks ago of a (male) Shoveller. I've got better shots somewhere hidden in the deep, dark recesses of my computer. Will probably locate them in five years time.
