A pair of black-headed ducks, the only parasitic duck, shares the scene with a cocoi heron and a white-tufted grebe. The interesting thing is that on the isle behind several ducks can barely be seen in the thick vegetation. This isle will certainly be a good place to breed since ducks are very well protected. Is this pair already monitoring the area?
