Bromley bread muncher

Today I dragged the kids over to Bromley to take a look at the Long tailed Duck that's been hanging out at Hayes Farm for nearly a month. Wildfowl turning up in dodgy locations (like this tiny fishing lake in the middle of an urban common) tend to be viewed with a certain amount of suspicion. Still, it was too far away to throw bread at so I've decided it counts.

The shot below seems to show fairly long scaps, so perhaps an ad female rather than immature.

The boys had a brilliant time jumping in and out of puddles and whacking everything they could find with sticks.
