Blimey moulting into eclipse plumage already? seems like Summer has only just started after last couple of weeks of cold wet weather!

Lovely study, just a shame it is not the full drake plumage :rolleyes:

A cracking shot of a species I've yet to see let alone photograph. I think the reflection of the pale blue sky sets the bird off really well.

Like Paul, I have yet to see one 'in the flesh'. Wonderful feather arrangement nicely photographed.
