Further to Wayne Gregson's report on Tuesday, today I popped in to the Bungendore Sewage Works. The shelduck pair was accompanied by nine ducklings. They are really cute!

I wonder where their nest was? Various references indicate that they usually, tho not always, nest in tree hollows, sometimes long distances from the water in which the ducklings end up.
