Green Winged Teal

After meeting some friends for Sunday Lunch, we decided to head over to Brandon Marsh for a walk and to take a look at the drake Green Winged Teal on River Pool.  Within seconds we were onto the bird who was showing particularly well by feeding in the centre of the pool (a lot easier to find than the drake I saw at Blashford where I had to search for 2 hours, swapping between hides).

After securing the usual out of focus record shot (above), we moved onto East Marsh hide which looked quite empty at first glance.  However, after sitting for a while we were rewarded by sightings of two Water Rail and two Snipe, along the usual ducks and Pterodactyls on the goal posts.
