It so looked like a Muscovy - I had thought it was a young female and had not yet developed the bare facial skin bizzo. I am sure you are right Liam .

How lovely Wendy. Sorry the fox got it in the end. This one looked very lonely.

I had a lovely pied one as a pet -inner urban Melbourne. She was left anonymously in a box in my front yard. She followed me about like a dog - very grumpy if I stood on her toes as she shadowed me. Survived one fox visit, not a second many years later.

He’s a real show-off. Often goes through the splashing/whistling display, although he’s never had a mate

Great to know, he certainly didn’t mind posing for photos!
