A Garganey Pair

Garganeys are summer visitors to the UK and I don't often see one, nevermind a pair. The males are striking with their white eye stripe whereas the females look similar to many other female ducks. This is the best view that I have ever had of either sex and because they are a potential breeding pair, it has been decided (by the birding fraternity) that it is best not to disclose their North West whereabouts.
