amazing pretty birds that are not that rare around. Lots of semi domesticated ones running around

Web Lake in RB has a couple that hang out with the wood ducks (probably came from the Wild Animal Park).......Which they're closely related too....... 8)

Sea World has an array of exotic ducks, including mandarins.....Probably came from there.
