#hardhead — Public Fediverse posts

A duck tale in four frames:

What do you mean you don't think I can do the thing?

I'm going to do the thing!

I'm doin' it! Look!

Told you I could do the thing.

On the UQ Lake this morning there were a pair of Hardheads swimming along and occasionally diving below the surface. This one, sporting a fine array of water droplets on its back, had only just popped up from underwater a moment before.

A few birds from my walk around the lake this arvo (returning from the other side of campus from a job)

We have a Hardhead (and its reflection); a Dusky Moorhen chick; an Australian White Ibis (aka Bin Chicken), washing itself; a Magpie Lark (aka Peewee)

A lone Hardhead (dark brown duck with white eyes) was swimming around on the lake yesterday. This morning though, there was a Bush Stone-curlew hiding under a bush, and some Dusky Moorhen chicks learning to forage from their parents.

Also spotted on campus this morning, the bully of the parrot world, a Rainbow Lorikeet;
a Buff-banded Rail stalking through the undergrowth, and a Hardhead shaking a tailfeather.

There are a pair of Hardheads that have taken up residence in the lake at work.

They're a bit skittish, swimming further out in to the lake when you walk anywhere near them.

Anyway, as you can see, they have that classic dog-faced duck bill thing happening.

We went out this morning, despite the forecast for rain (which turned out to be accurate) and wandered around Enoggera Reservoir. There weren't a lot of visible birds about, but I got a few.
