July ducks - I'm not falling for that again

I woke at 05:50 and it was murky and grey.

At BSL at 06:30 and a female and Juv Grey Wagtail means they bred nearby, on to LFGP and one Green Sandpiper, 1 LRP, 2 Skylark, then I noticed a small group of Mallard, but one caught my eye, showing facial features a little like a Garganey...but wasn't one.

I took some shots to reveal the similarity, but plumage overall was not right, flanks, tail and it wasn't small enough, the structure and bill shape was wrong.



A Little Egret went off East and that was about it, just as the clouds went NE and the sun came out.
