Ecological Niche

I came across these mallard ducks in a flooded area. I realized it was a male and a female. The female was behind the shrubs munching on something while the male simply floated in his puddle and chilled.

I was surprised to see the ducks in this area, away from their usual hangout in the lakes. This place is surrounded by a dense rainforest, but is itself clear of trees. The way I understand it, the lack of trees permits the growth of certain plant species that wouldn't grow otherwise, as well as the arrival of new animal species.
