THE RARE, FLIGHTLESS AUCKLAND ISLAND. TEAL. No more than 600 of this largely nocturnal species survive. The photographer describes the teal as "self assured and cheeky, relatively unafraid of humans. When it was first approached by me it backed itself into a cave but in the end it walked across my feet in order to get out!" Photo: Kim Westerskov
