Long Tailed Duck

At last I have been able to get improved views of the Long Tailed Duck now it has been driven into the harbour by the stormy weather. I first noted this bird  a long way out on November 15 but at least there has been some benefit from storm Angus!

At first, not easy to spot in the choppy water.

...but gradually it came closer.

...until it gave some stonking views!

Wing stretching.

Not often seen up close but need a male bird next time...never satisfied!
