  1. Beautiful up here Bob. A very nice duck. We saw a tufted duck this morning but it flew away before I could snap it.

  2. Lovely boy ! He is very beautiful and your photos also. For us, in french, his name is "Fuligule à collier" it's nice in english also ! It is unusual to see this duck in Europe, no ?
    Nice evening Bob and sweet week end !

    1. Yes, it is unusual to find them here, you will find them in Somerset, that is the only I know of Nathanaëlle.

  9. I'm wondering who gave that bird the "ring necked" name. I can see possible sideburns but no ring neck!

    How did the duck carry his school books? He put them in his quackpack. Haha!
