User's notes
1 Male plus at least 1 female maybe more females as they are difficult to tell apart from all the Grey Teal there. Seen from the hill near the Wetlands office, the male and others flew off when a vehicle drove around the pond, but the male did not fly over to Kelly's Swamp like most of the other ducks.
