As are Pacific Black Ducks, Black Swans and Silver Gulls.

I've actually found it interesting that most common wetland birds
(Australian Wood Duck, Dusky Moorhen, Black Swan) viciously defend their
chicks, but Pacific Black Duck mothers will lead their broods right over my
feet in hope of getting food.
