Wigeon Anas penelope Stanley Park Blackpool287 viewsThis has got to be the friendliest Wigeon I've ever encountered, I usually struugle getting within a country mile of them, but this one was obviously used to being fed & was hoping for some of Hovis's finest, which unfortunately I didn't have.

Mandarin Duck273 viewsActually a perching duck rather than dabbling, but I've tucked it in here for convenience, photographed @ Stanley Park Blackpool.

Ringed Teal256 viewsA small Teal from central South America & therefore almost certain to be an escapee from a waterfowl collection. This individual was very tame, it actually chased me around the bank hoping I was going to feed it, which actually made it quite awkward to photograph as it wouldn't stay put & kept coming too close, so I was constantly backing off trying to get a shot.
