Baer's Pochard, Osaka Japan (Aythya baeri)

This bird has been coming to Suminoe Park in Osaka in winter for a few years. There is a small but perfectly formed duck pond with a small island with a duck house, but this bird insists on residing in an (unused outside summer) swimming pool 100 metres from the pond.
Location
Suminoe Park, Osaka, Japan
Date taken
7 November, 2015
Scientific name
Aythya baeri
A pond by any other name is still a pond to this bird! lol. Nice job getting this shot so we can see it's "home waters."
