Females. Umistakable with the overall brownish plumage and the small tuft. The commonest aythya species in Denmark during the winter. |

♀. Hejresøen. I'm pretty sure this is not a pure Tufted Duck, since I've never seen a bird with such a bright and speckled chest before. Will look into it... Hybrid |

Birkedammen. Frost has arrived, and the lakes are frozen. Except where ducks maintains an opening. I estimated some 4000 had gathered here this day (less in the photo). Also a fair number of Common Pochards are blended in. |

♀. Two birds visiting the inner harbor. The light sensibility seems to be different the two between, with different pupil sizes under same light conditions. |

First calendar year. ♂. Rather than an adult still in eclipse plumage, I would like this bird to be a young male gaining its first tuft and the rest that will come. |
