I was hoping for better views of the Blue-winged Teal today and bit more 'Blue' today and whilst there were no complaints about close views, the blue view was always distant!
But, having skulked in the reeds for nearly all it's stay, it paddled across the pool!!
Literally under the hide at one stage!
Having paddled back to the far side, at least I got another glimpse of blue...
As it flew down to the seaward end, and back in the reeds...
