Though presumably they eat a few invertebrates or fish fry as 'by-catch' or even on purpose (watching mallard's chase flies has to be one of the funniest things ever!). |
Animal food is important part of a Shoveler's diet (especially crutacea such as ostracods + Cladocera), but I'd agree with the others. Apparently Linnet + Twite are the only finches that don't feed their chicks on insect food, so these two should qualify.
