Hello,
they look Teals to me. Please note

• yellow patch at the bill-base, like a grinning patch
• white stripe under the tail
• the right head-bil shape for a Teal

the second and third picture sems to show an unusual hold of the wing. An poor bird with damaged wing? Or even Two birds?

Thank you, Alexander, in any case Teals were present
