		They exploit a wide range of ecological niches for, while all wildfowl are competent swimmers, some, such as geese and wigeon feed extensively on land, while others, particularly diving ducks, obtain all their food underwater and are consequently quite clumsy on their feet.
		The Brown Teal Anas chlorotis, or pateke, is an endemic New Zealand species of the worldwide Anas genus of dabbling ducks within the family Anatidae.
		There are men who derive great satisfaction from hunting mallard or wigeon or teal but there must be few for whom the excitement is not doubled when straining ears pick up the music of approaching geese.

		Driving back to the high pass we saw some more activity than early in the morning: Plumbeous Sierra-Finch, Puna Hawk, Speckled Teal (a few in a small lake), Mountain Caracara again from very nearby on the shoulder of the road.
		In the pass area, so in the open puna (photo above), with no trees around anywhere, we were surprised by a group of three Andean Flickers, one eating something from the ground, the other two hopping from stone to stone.
