I was told it is rare to find them here. I’m new to naturemapr and cannot work out how to place the sighting in the dam rather than in the middle of a busy road!

Clearly Cotton Pygmy-Goose, though not offered in list of local waterfowl

Looks to also be Wandering Whistling Duck (two front birds with less strong white plumes) - the far right bird is clearly a Plumed though so will leave ID

Dendrocygna eytoni

@MatthewFrawley Just had a quick look on eBird. On 15 May, 2025, 12 were reported.
On 23 October, 2018, 23 were reported. 2025 has been a good year for them here.
