A Shellduck

An early Blip as I have a really busy day ahead, followed by a night out.
At first it was a toss up between the Heron and "Good morning".
But, I have decided to change my Blip as although it is not a brilliant image, I decided that I wanted to share this bird with you. I was cycling out of the park very early this morning, when I spotted a pair of these unusual ducks near the Leg of Mutton Pond. Sadly, they flew away as I tried to get close, but I did mange to " catch" this shot. Here is a bit of info on this colourful duck.

I apologise to those of you have already commented. I have never changed my Blip before!
TGIF!
Have a great weekend everybody!
