Water Bird with no name...........!!

I don't mean Fred or Alice, you know what i mean.
I can't find anything similar in any of the books i have, probably not trying hard enough............

It's been weeks since i last blipped, training courses to attend, 2 week holiday on Kefalonia, another training course to attend for work after the holiday, did i mention Mum was back in Hospital for the fourth time with the same complaint.......Not sure which is worse, the doctors who can't make their minds up about a course of treatment to follow, the pricing for the car park at the hospital, or the nurses who at 10am last Friday said Mum would be staying in hospital for at least the next five days, then by 11am she was sat downstairs in the discharge unit trying to sort out some transport home.........Fair or unfair.........??

Anyway on a brighter front, it was good to have the Canon in my hands again this morning........

If anyone can help me with the name of this waterbird i'd me very grateful, and no, i don't mean Donald or Daffy.............

I'll be starting to backblip some of my holiday shots over the next few days so if you're interested, please feel free to drop by........
