Another pic of the Paradise duck (Tadorna variegata) babies we spotted along Staples Street last weekend. Paradise ducks are a real grassland-loving species, they’re happy with a bit of paddock and a stream running through it, a riverbank with plenty of grasses alongside or even just a park where too much rainwater has accumulated on the ground. Of all the waterfowl in New Zealand, only mallards are more numerous than Paradise ducks.
