Gadwall
 

As well as waders and LBJs a visit to Titchwell provides the opportunity to photograph ducks. A number of sea ducks can be seen off shore , particularly in winter. But within the reserve, and often quite close to the hides, you can see other ducks too. One of my favourite ducks is the Gadwall. Nominally quite a dull bird, the males in particular are quite handsome. Despite the variable light, on this particular trip I was able to get one or two images I was quite pleased with.
