Grey Teal

This duck could be a female Chestnut Teal; either are uncommon at the pond but what a cute, nicely shaped duck it is. Very attractive. It flew in alone, for one day only and I photographed it just after rain. All the head shots are a bit soft so I wasn't that happy with the results but you can see it's a duck.




At home with Pacific Black Ducks. Grey Teal is top right.


Post Script: The following day no Grey Teal. Day after that 3 of them so that makes them Grey Teal in my book, not Chestnuts. After that I lost track.
