@MatthewFrawley Yes, I noticed that but I think the NatureMap map is out. The location is -35.308448, 149.028305. If you paste that into Google maps you get the correct location which is the lake just to the south of Coaldrake Ave and at the end of Bertie Cl. This is about 176 m away. I'll report this to Admin.

the freckled ducks are quite common at that site in small numbers, but the shovellers usually only number 2 or 4 across the whole site for some the year. It was really unusual to see that many shovellers. normally I would say they are not together and usually no ducks are on that particular pond but the whole site was flooded so circumstances were different perhaps to the norm..

It so looked like a Muscovy - I had thought it was a young female and had not yet developed the bare facial skin bizzo. I am sure you are right Liam .
