Tufted duck on West Park lake watching me warily. In winter, the handful of these birds which can be spotted on the lake at any time of year increases to a gathering which usually numbers some twenty to thirty or so. The drakes almost always outnumber the females present.
Another tuftie drake on the same day. This one was heading away from me, with the breeze catching the tuft – the feathers sticking out from the back of the head.
