Something I've never seen before.
A clan fight over who is the "Big Puke"
A good 5 min scrap while I was watching and it was going on before.
Started with a show of strength of pushing and raking each others breasts.
Got into full on head picking, feet chomping and other of the birds around stomping.
Also one other fight on the side.
9 birds
The dude with the biggest tarsus won ..........
Go figure

seen from Bittern Hide an adult carrying a dead rabbit for a meal, another couple of adult Swamphens came along and joined in on the meal. Also saw 2 young from another hide. Have seen a Swamphen drown a duckling and take it back to young to feed on but never seen one with a rabbit.

Description
Accidental 'by catch' in sample of Lemna aff. disperma I have been cultivating since 15 November 2015 for suitable material for DNA sequencing
Fronds deltoid. Roots pinnate.
Azolla pinnata is generally regarded as an 'introduced' naturalized species to New Zealand - but I believe its more likely it self-introduced from Australia via the movements of trans-Tasman wetland birds such as grey teal (Anas gracilis). For me it is hard to understand how it was deliberately naturalized by people when it first appeared in New Zealand in the far north of the North Island (where many other accepted indigenous taxa shared with Australian first appeared (many of them aquatic) growing in places where trans-Tasman wetland birds are known to make landfall) and from where it has been spreading south ever since. This pattern is typical of a range of other wetland plants (e.g., Alternanthera denticulata, Juncus polyanthemus, Gratiola pedunculata; ferns (Blechnum neohollandicum, Christella dentata) and orchids (Cryptostylis subulata, Chilogottis formicifera, Pterostylis nutans, Thelymitra matthewsii and T. malvina, to name but a few) which are shared with Australia and which we accept as indigenous without question.
Whatever its biostatus - it cannot be denied that it is a very weedy and aggressive species in small ponds, lakes and slow moving water bodies.
