The head is black, but also has a green iridescence along the side. The eye is a bright yellow. The duck's breast is black, but seems to have a purplish sheen to it in this photo. The belly is white and its feathers are mottled. The tail is dark with some white spotting.

A male #goldeneye down at Seafield Pond, Belhaven Bay. I feel like they favour sitting out in the middle of the pond and are usually on their own. A skilled #divingduck

Her head is chestnut brown, with shaggy plumage at the crown, and her bill, legs, and feet are pinky red.

I just can’t get enough of these little diving ducks! This one was swimming away, but even from behind, their sleek black-and-white plumage and compact shape make them a favorite to watch.

A drake Scaup at Farmoor Reservoir. This is a diving duck, similar to a male Tufted Duck except that the Tufted Duck has a black back, and in the Scaup the back is grey. It's a relatively scarce winter visitor to the UK, more often found on inshore waters around the coast than on inland water bodies.

A male Tufted Duck swims on a river. He is mainly black, with purple-green iridescence on his head feathers, and a white belly. His back is covered with water droplets from his previous dive, and he is stretching his neck in preparation for diving again.

A group of six Tufted Ducks - five males and one female - on the River Avon at Stratford. These are small diving ducks. The males are black and white with a long tuft of feathers at the back of the head, like a ponytail. The females are largely brown, with some paler mottling on the flanks.

A Tufted Duck with a water snail. These small diving ducks can stay submerged for over 20 seconds as they search for food. They especially favour molluscs, but sometimes catch one that's too large to swallow.
A Tufted Duck at Farmoor Reservoir a couple of weeks ago. They have quite a varied diet, but seem especially fond of water snails. I doubt that the feeling is mutual.
