I thought it was tiny.

Bricktop

Tiny and fast. Hard to photograph. I'm still hoping to take a better quality image of one of them.

Cute, but devastating on the wine industry. They'll peck a grape and another and another and another... Botrytise the whole vine. Mind you, one could make a decent sweet wine out of it.

Cute little dinosaurs though.

Oh my, that's a problem for farmers.

An Australian Shelduck. Our biggest duck other than Daniel Andrews.
