On the lagoon today

Three ducks swimming along.
Taken today

Today was hot and humid. Most of the wildlife was quietly at rest, finding places to cool off. The pelican seemed happy just to cool off in the shallows.
It took me a while to realise this cockatoo was sitting above in the leaves just keeping an eye on me.
The duck also happy to sit around in the lagoon.
The turtle was just surfing, waiting for a wave that wouldn’t eventuate.
The hawk was just not bothered and keeping a wary eye out.
Weir ducks

These gorgeous little ducks were at a weir close by the farm. I think they are Australian Wood Ducks.
Do I have a blue spot?

For Debbie’s Six Word Saturday Challenge
Stand up properly, someone is watching.
Let’s just go for a swim.
Turn around and jump in too.
Majestic Mallards
September 5, 2020
I spotted this duck perched high up in a tree branch. She was spying on a beautifully coloured male duck. He was showing off, trying to impress her. Sadly, she flew off and left him all alone.
I thought these were mallard. But since I posted this I learnt that mallards are more likely to have orange feet. I think they are Australian Shelducks.
Ready
Set
Go
Landed and having a quiet swim.
All by himself.
