Paradise Duck
Photographed while on site in New Brighton, a place that was affected by the by the 2011 earthquake in New Zealand 🇳🇿
Paradise duck as the duck is called is absolutely attractive, though I was busy, I got distracted a bit to photograph this bird beauty.
By looking for it's name, I also found out that they mate for life, meaning they stick to one partner all through their life, which I find to be very interesting.

Some bird life on South Island is great, something most commented not evident in the North.
Interesting, I will be off to North Island next for team day
Hope you afforded a little time to explore, enjoy!
Fly into Auckland in the morning attend the event, fly back the next day 😀
Doubt you will enjoy it as much as the south..... Another city!
