    Thes are rather nice duck. there ia=s a pair that visit the Exe estuary most of the year round.
    The two here are taken from a passing flock . They are probably a pair but are male and female.
    You can see the difference by the beaks.
    The feamale's beak is very different to that of the maile and not so bright.

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.
