These colourful little ducks aren't easy to get close to and it was a lucky morning when I found a group of them feeding in the estuary. Lucky because they were more interested in feeding than running from me! Green-winged Teal facts: Teals are rapid, agile flyers. They are the only duck known to scratch while in flight. ~ Animal Diversity Web
