I.D. Challenge

Can you identify this dabbling duck? I have tried to make it easy.

Yes of course it is a Pintail.

About 30,000 Pintails spend the winter in Britain, mainly on estuaries but also on lakes and inland wet areas. They come from Iceland, Arctic Russia and Northern Europe. This is a male bird.

Look at the extra if you would like to see a more conventional photograph.
