But see the attached crop from the full resolution image. There is what
appears to be an egg visible behind the female duck.

Nick  -  Your ducks are clearly A Wood Ducks, for which HANZAB says the nest
is 'always in holes in trees'.  Maybe an exception is possible, in which
case it would be easily verifiable, but perhaps just resting.  Geoffrey

At the small bay on the North side of Lake BG where the bike path from
Belconnen joins the path around the lake. In the reeds about 10m offshore.
