On Saturday Richard Nowotney agreed with me that the Spotted
Whistle-Ducks had perhaps been our " easiest and tamest" new species. I
reiterate his concerns (from his posting) that the welcoming nature of
the ducks could well be tested and therefore spoilt for others by too
much close attention. David Crawford reckons that there is a good chance
that they could be part of the Weipa flock due to their tameness.
Please respect this marvellous opportunity that is afforded by
these birds. Please take care not to walk directly to the pond but
initially accross the open area towards the home for sale then to the pond.
There would seem that the birds have plenty of food available in
the water lillies and they are quite content to be observed from fifty
metres.
