It can always be seen around the lake. I did hear that a neighbouring golf club had so much trouble with them that they were netted, transported and released a couple of hundred kilometres to the south. Evidently they returned home within a few days!<\/p>\n<p>The male has a short black mane; the female has a paler head with paler stripes separated by the eye. The females are noisier than the males.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly for a duck, it nests in tree hollows. The books say that it lays 9 to 11 eggs, but I have frequently seen a pair with more ducklings \u2013 up to 16. Perhaps they find a fertility boost from the idyllic conditions we provide for them. Doubtless they fatten the fox as well.<\/p>\n<p>Some members insist that they are geese rather than ducks and they certainly stand and walk like a small goose. Moreover, one of our lady members was \u201cgoosed\u201d by one attaching itself to her posterior, in an aggressive mood in protecting its ducklings. However, all the books are emphatic that they are ducks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5995 aligncenter\" alt=\"02\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lkcc.com.au\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/02.jpg\" width=\"536\" height=\"384\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5994 aligncenter\" alt=\"03\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lkcc.com.au\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/03.jpg\" width=\"536\" height=\"408\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Chenotta jubata) Length:\u00a0 42-59 cm Very Common Also known as the Maned Duck or Maned Goose.
