South African Shelduck (Tadorna cana)

More rain. When its like this, wet, I delve into my magic bag, and, lo and behold, here is the SA Shelduck. Another from Slimbridge WWT.

  2. I don't worry too much about rain it is a fact of life in the UK. I blame the government.
    Nice duck....I just take their pictures. Not a clue what they are. Pretty and not so pretty is as far as I get.
