    Default Teal,and friends at Moor Green Reserve

    Wasn't much to photograph on the reserve, but there was at least good light for those birds which were there.
    I managed to capture a Teal, Wigeon, Tufted Duck, Black-headed Gull and Lapwing. Plus what look like some first winter Cormorants.

    More lovely pics, Rolf!

    I especially like the Teal (first pic) and the Crested Duck!

    Not much work done today then?

    LOL, thanks Catherine, did a good morning's worth Catherine, spent a couple of hours in the afternoon at the reserve.

    The Teal looks almost artificially glossy.

    Oh and forgot about the Great Crested Grebe which made a fleeting appearance and the Grey Heron over the other side of the lake.
