HI Bob, Wonderful images of the Tuftie, a delightful little duck. Great you managed to get the purple sheen to the head. These are a bird that we get at Rutland in the thousands but still difficult to get decent image from. All the best, John
If only Donald Trump was one thousandth of the man that Nelson Mandela was.....or even had a hairstyle as impressive as a Tufted Duck.......of what a better place the world would be.
