| | | Mystery baby bird
From spring 2009. We took this baby in who was found in the middle of a busy north East market town.
We thought it was perhaps a merganser.   
Sorry picture quality is poor.
It had a serrated beak, webbed feet, and ran very fast.

Any way of telling the difference between the two at this age? The puzzling this was it was found running down the high street, a long way from water, and alone. Very underweight but with no obvious injuries.
