A couple of Pacific black ducks and a Philippine duck. Is it still the Bird of the Day time?

Spotted this stunning Pacific Black Duck gliding through the water! Its distinctive black eye stripe and beautifully patterned feathers make it one of Australia’s most recognisable native ducks.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is: #Parenting; of any form: nesting feeding etc. How about a #PacificBlackDuck being trailed by her ducklings? She made sure to do a loop around to catch a couple of stragglers.

Maybe it is a bit of projection, but it seems this Pacific Black duck is enjoying life.

Say hello to the Pacific Black Duck! 🦆✨ With its striking face stripes & blue-grey bill, this Aussie native is a pro at dabbling for food. 🍃💦 They can even hybridise with Mallards! Ever spotted one? #PacificBlackDuck #WildlifePhotography #Birdwatching #AustralianBirds #DuckLife

There's always the one child who moves at just the wrong time and ends up blurry in the family photo. (Honestly? We're not even sure that one's related.)

I spotted this duck in our neighbourhood wetlands recently. I'm uncertain about its species—could it be a crossbreed of a Pacific Black Duck and a Mallard? What are your thoughts? #WildlifeWatch #DuckMystery #Mallard #PacificBlackDuck #birds

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme #JKLMNOP, any bird that has one of those letters as the first letter of its name (or second word in its name) and the #PacificBlackDuck qualifies with a P (and a bevy of adorable ducklings)!

🦆 What’s in this duck’s beak?

This Pacific Black Duck has something caught in its beak—possibly a strand of aquatic weed, but it could also be plastic. Either way, it reminds us how easily litter can end up in our waterways.

Sacred kingfisher at its nest, a hole in an a large old termite nest made of mud. In the large tree hollow is a nesting Pacific black duck. Photos taken in the Heinemann Road Conservation Area, Mount Cotton. #birdphotography #Queensland #sacredkingfisher #pacificblackduck

A couple of different birds from Macquarie campus recently. These are the first photos I took with my new camera and to say I’ve been enjoying it is an understatement.
