The Mere - Long tailed Duck

The Long-tailed Duck was still present but constantly either in the middle or off the inaccessible far corner of Colemere! The Mere beckoned and thankfully the male here was showing reasonably well?

A series showing off all angles and those prominent white scapulars, looking good for 1st winter male.

I'm sure he would have looked better against dark water but this was the best I could manage!

Whitemere next.....
