Pacific Black Duck






Like other ducks and geese, this very common Australian duck is a strong swimmer. It most fund near the water and normally feeds on aquatic plant seeds, insects, and crustaceans, but is also accused by farmers of damaging crops.
More brown then black, it has a dark line edged in white from the bill, trough to the eye.
