Some time ago I sent to the chatline this assortment from
Gungahlin Pond - all snapped in the one group. LBG has similar, although not
quite such a range. The centre left bird is possibly the chap in question.

Seen yesterday afternoon at the northern end of Lake Tuggeranong; solitary
large duck - considerably bigger than Wood or Pacific Black - mostly black with
conspicuous white breast. We have also seen it on occasion at the
Tuggeranong Park 'beach' with other fowl - and no it isn't a swan.
Any ideas?
