Here is my second attempt at posting this. Sorry it didn't do it properly last time. The photo was taken on a golf course about two weeks ago. Thanks

Wow - long-tailed duck. Looks fully winged but might still be part of a collection I guess. If not, probably a pretty rare bird down there...

It looks like a Long-tailed duck. Strange place to see it on a golf course!

Yep, male Long-tailed Duck.

Got to be an escape, surely. Wild ones outside of the breeding season spend about 99.995% of their time on water, almost never come ashore.

Thanks everybody. Apparently there were lots of people taking photos of it.
