Soto de las Juntas first day of summer II. Redcrested and common pochards & gadwalls (1 Viewer)

IMG_8132.JPG
I saw a 26 ducks group in the reeds at the west of Soto de las Juntas Pond.
They flew out to the open waters when I arrived. Only this gadwall was still in the place.
Some ducklings and their mother flew out too.
They were common pochards.
I was looking the big group in the open waters
But shortly after they began to come back again toward the reeds.
Most of them were gadwalls with white speculum
But in the middle of the gadwalls I saw the unmistakable red beak of male red-crested pochard.
