A group of large ducks taking flight in a splash of water, they are grey and brow, with red and white on their wings.
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Splash.
Here's the local flock of gadwalls in action, showing off the red on their wings along with that distinctive flash of white.

Tan male duck with finely patterned feathers floats in a vast expanse of orange duckweed, bill immersed in the weeds as it dabbles for food.

A flock of gadwall, large brown and grey ducks, feeding at the point the Thames and Wandle meet. They are on a blue river, with brown reflections of nearby buildings.
It's interesting watching the waterfowl on the Wandle delta change over the years. It was only a winter or so ago I saw my first gadwall, now the confluence with the Thames is full of them...

One male gadwall and one female gadwall swimming as a pair together on the surface of a calm body of water.
A grey duck moves smoothly across still water reflecting green leaves, with just a gentle ripple behind it.
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Serenity.
And so a gadwall drifts across the Wandle delta, on a spring day, under reflected green trees.

A brown duck floating in still water that is reflecting a yellow background.
From this morning's chilly Wandle wander, a gadwall in the calm waters of the delta at high tide.

A pair of two ducks (one male gadwall duck on the left, one male ring-necked duck on the right) floating on top of a still body of water. Tall wetland plants are in the extreme foreground of the photo and are blurred into a brown haze over the left and right thirds of the image.
