Tufted Duck



The Hard frost of recent times, has finally driven some birds to the river. 


Frozen ponds and lochs mean hard times for some species. 



This morning I spotted the first female Tufted duck in the river this winter, she was happily swimming among the mallards who were quite accepting of her presence. 


Meanwhile 3 cygnets were having a little chat together.
