Gadwall Female


 This Dabbling duck is smaller than the Mallard. There seems to be several of these birds at Ferrymoor Flash right now. The female is very similar to the male but has a very orange beak. Seems to be a lot of new wildlife appearing now. I cannot wait to show what I spotted yesterday in  tomorrow's post here.
