Certainly looks like it to me - they come in an amazingly complex array  
of plumage varieties - the eyebrow in the rear bird is a fairly certain  
giveaway for the Black Duck component, though again, they don't all  
have it.
 We have lots of examples of this 'variety' around parks and waterways  
in Tassie.
