Well it's the first day of our southern summer and the ducks will rejoice because it may as well be winter again.
It's windy, rainy, cold and generally uninviting to go diving. I am hoping the weather will quickly recover so we can get back in the water again.
In the mean time this Pacific Black duck (
Anas superciliosa) thinks all is well with the world as it waddles up the beach basked in the golden glow of sunset.
