As you may remember I was very excited about a pair of Gadwall. Well this morning I caught a duck swimming out of the corner of my eye. It seemed a bit more white than I might expect but some hybrid Mallards can contain white.
It had gone out of sight but I wandered around the pond and....
Shoveler!! Sorry for the lousy pic. Phone at 19x
When I wandered past 15 minutes later I couldn't see it. I'll look again tomorrow.
You know still can't believe a Tufted Duck hasn't turned up but I am very happy to see a Shoveler!
