| |  Hello from the Black Pudding Town.
Hi,
My name is Marie, affectionately known by many as LilyBilly. Though I'm not a very good bird spotter I do like to look at them and take photos of them. I was in Mosses Gate Country Park New Years Day and saw some (about 4) lovely black ducks with white on their sides. They have a lovely rounded head and a tuft coming of the back. Can anyone tell me what they are called please.
Many thanks. |

Welcome to WAB Marie, it certainly sounds like you saw tufted ducks. Have a look in our Gallery to confirm.  |

Hi Marie,
welcome and I hope you still have the famous black puddings on the market, not been there for a long time but might make a call for some.
Carol.
