3 images of this strange duck at Ringstone with 3 Wigeon(yesterday and today) found by Steve and Tony. It doesn't look like a 'farmyard' type and seems to be acting as a wild bird. It was feeding with and stayed with the Wigeon. It has pinkish legs and the bill is substatial with quite a broad tip. Photo's self explanatory, is it a X hybrid or leucistic or what. Any ideas?
Also present in the fields adjacent and down the road towards Barkisland
100+ Golden Plover
30+ Lapwings
1 Snipe
107 Canada Geese
Just a handful of Common and B H Gulls (one with a full black hood)
