Applying The Brakes
The 1st trip of 2023 and a trip to Slimbridge, Gloucestershire.
A male Tufted Duck applies the brakes as it flies in to land on the Tack Piece lagoon.
The Tufted Duck is a medium-sized diving duck, smaller than a Mallard. It is black on the head, neck, breast and back and white on the sides. It has a small crest and a yellow eye. In flight it shows an obvious white stripe across the back of the wing.
