Description Here we have a male and a female Green Pygmy Goose (Nettapus pulchellus) A small to medium size goose, up to 14 inches in body length, they have the most wonderful iridescent green sheen in direct sunlight and look similar, with the male having larger expanses of the green, particularly around the neck, as can be seen nicely in this photograph This handsome pair where photographed in a brackish lagoon on the outskirts of Port Douglas, Queensland Australia. The peaceful photograph of these beautiful birds is a lovely reminder of my trip
