Eurasian Teal
Another trip to Slimbridge, Gloucestershire on the 15th November 2023. The water levels on the lagoons on the outer fields were still rising slowly.
A Eurasian Teal on the Tack Piece Lagoon at Slimbridge.
The Eurasian Teal, also known as the Teal or Common Teal, is the smallest dabbling duck in Europe.
The Eurasian Teal is similar to the Green Winged Teal which differs by having a vertical white stripe on the side of the breast and a much less defined white border around the green stripe on the face.
Many hundreds of Teal fly into Slimbridge to spend their Winter on the outer fields.
