Musk Duck

Provided flooding rains don't spoil the party again, only slackness will prevent us nailing 230+ species this year.

Musk Duck

Post by Mick Atzeni »

Yesterday arvo, Claire Hanney and I saw a female Musk Duck at Hood's Lagoon, Helidon.

Musk Duck is a rarity in the TBO local survey area where it has only ever been recorded at Hood's and the Helidon Spa. The first club record was a female found by Terry Reis & Brian Foulis at Hood's on 17/12/83. Since then I have recorded eight others. Curiously, each time it was a solitary female.

Cheers
