Northern Shoveler
At the end of January 2025 I spent the morning at WWT Slimbridge, Gloucestershire.
The task for the morning was to get some images of Northern Shovelers in flight.
The Northern Shoveler is my favourite Duck that we see in the UK.
The Northern Shoveler, or Shoveler, is a Dabbling Duck and is common in northern areas of Europe, Asia and North America.
The Shovelers bill has developed a comb like structure on its edges which acts like a sieve to filter out food from the water's.
