Without doubt the most unusual duck I have seen. This was was rather small so could be a juvi.

A really great photo of either a young one or a female. The detail is excellent (something I have always had trouble with) and the colour is spot on. A beauty Broc.
Oh I am so green with envy, I haven't seen one now for about 3 years. Lake Wendouree in Ballarat used to have lots.

Nice shot. I remember seeing them around Sydney as a kid, but I haven't seen one for years.
