Ferruginous Duck (Porrón Pardo / Aythya nyroca). |
Julia dropped me off near to West Park and I walked in looked on the first pool I came to and I soon found the very smart looking male Ferruginous Duck (Porrón Pardo / Aythya nyroca) which had been around for a few days. It was fully winged and in good condition and generally none too tame, although it could be at times according to other reports.
