More from the local wetland
The Australian Shelducks were acting very aggressively towards other birds last week, today the reason was revealed.
Female and chicks, 12 chicks in all, they'll be lucky if 6 survive the Swamp Harriers, Goshawks, Purple Swamphens and Foxes.  The male having a break from chasing off anything that came close.  Little Pied Cormorant  Australasian Shovelers settling down after being chased by the Shelduck.

G'day Mike
More of your beaut Aussie bird shots - and as always, spot-on focus & exposure I'm impresed that you know all their names - I'm a slacker in this regard ... to me they're 'birds' but I enjoy 'em all  Phil

Thanks Phil, I'm lucky to have friends who are expert birders and also to have the wetlands just a 10 minute stroll from home, makes learning the names easy. I still look them up before I post.
