Not GPSed but confident position on dam is within 10m based on photos and good knowledge of site after years of visiting it. Male & female ducks.

Hi Andy. It would be better to move the photo with the clearest image of Chenonetta jubata to the first image location.

Michael I've done a bit more cropping to give pics as clear as I can get them - 1st & 2nd of the male, 3rd & 4th of the female. In this case it was relatively easy but this is not always the case.
