      For most of my life mallards where the standard duck but they'res also a lot of goldeneyes here you also see pintails, teals, widgeons and tufted ducks here and they're. Mandarin ducks, common shellducks, eiders, scoters, smews and shovelers but quite rarely

    "Female sounds are low growls, usually in response to disturbance". I'm sure you're right.

    Possums do not predate on birds, they are herbivores

      They are omnivorous, as they eat eggs, and juvenile birds, and even if they were only herbivores like you say, they cause catastrophic damage to native plant life.

      Possums will also eat animals like mice
