Long-tailed Duck Females (Clangula hyemalis)

Today was the first time I've seen any of these ducks. In Michigan, these are usually reported in the Great Lakes, Lake St. Clair, or the Detroit River. It was nice to see them closer to my home on an impoundment of the Huron River.

Two great shots.
I think these birds are a bit rarer in England.

Beautiful ducks! I've never seen these ones myself. They're really unique looking with their white heads and markings. Thanks!
