Title: Long-tailed Duck drake
Post by: feathered on March 10, 2012, 02:52:30 PM

I suspect these guys will soon be on their way north as the weather warms up (though they did stick around for a while last year). This drake from Ashbridge's was a little more friendly and accommodating than his mate.

I will miss their yodelling...

I like the last one with just the tail sticking up.

Thank you! I think that one's my favourite.
