I am assuming this is not a British duck, but I wondered if anyone could identify it for me. It was taken at Leeds Castle last year. It is really bugging me as it is the only bird in my photo album without an identity.  |

It looks like a hooded merganser. |

Leeds castle was beautiful. Now I know what the duck is, I wish I had taken a side view as well. I have relations living near there so hopefully I will visit again. |

I point my camera and shoot. Hope for the best. I was hoping to go on a photography course but it didn't happen, so maybe this September. | | |
