Teal (the bird not the colour)

Visible to anyone in the world

My brother photographed these teal a couple of days ago.


They are the smallest wildfowl species in the UK, weighing 300 or 400 g. Only 2,000 or so pairs breed here, but in winter nearly half a million birds migrate here from countries further north.
