Pacific Black Duck (Anas superciliosa) (1) Completely unknown variation ( if it
is a P.B.Duck).
Photos taken but I don't know how to show them.
Bird......Duck / Teal........Size, nearer Black D. than Coot.... Head Glaringly
white with a very dark line through eye, ( not a supercillium ) , a small
black, tapered chin / gape matching the eye line in colour and mottled grey
cap.....Neck and breast glaringly white,
centre of 'tummy' not seen but vent / rump also white.....Sides of breast
dappled light chestnut (?) darkening further back with wings a medium dark
brown with markings somewhat similar to Pac. Black Duck or Grey Teal .....Tail
not clearly seen but feather's seemed to be white tipped.....Legs quite
Mallard in colour......Bill quite distinctive, ( I think ), base a slate grey
with a clear delineation about half way down with remainder greenish.
Coloured parts rather different to anything I've seen but the white is quite
outstanding..... Initially seen with Coots and Black Ducks but 2 hrs. later
resting alone.
With luck someone will tell me how to download photos. If not, please feel
free to contact me as my wife and I would love to know what it is or could be.
