G’day

Pacific Black Duck numbers increased markedly in the suburban lakes around 
Perth, each year, within days of the opening of the Duck-shooting season.  We 
used to believe this was because of the shooting.  I used to be an honorary 
fauna warden for W.A. and such behaviour was commonly accepted.

Cheers

Mike
