Aussie Wood ducks are also called Maned Geese & are not related to American Wood ducks, which are pretty birds. The Aussie 'woodies' are a dull, mottled brown (females) or gray (males). They are very prolific & are found in all areas.

They're well camouflaged walking through the grasses but not so much in the water. Cute shots, Earl.

Very enjoyable images Earl. I have learned a lot, well at least a little bit, about Aussie wildlife from your posts.

Nice shot, Earl. You can tell they love their ducklings.

They are pretty plain looking, Sue, & they are fairly safe from duck hunters because they are too tough to eat, lol.
