Mandarin Duck (Same bird) Click thumbnail to open record ~ Click species name to see all records of the species ~ Click locality to see location
	3536 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2021-06-18 Kongelundsområdet, Denmark ♀. Probably a young female due to the vaguely patterned breast. Also see 3537 for more photos from the day after.
	3537 (6 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2021-06-19 Kongelundsområdet, Denmark ♀. Probably young female due to the vaguely patterned breast and the buff-edged central tail feathers. Not banded and able to fly, makes it a good candidate for a valid C-list observation. Same as 3536. I have little experience with the species, why it was interesting to see how long-tailed it is. This, probably, making it look bigger than it is. This day, standing on the brink of the water, picture 1, we didn't get on to it at first, thinking it was a larger duck, likely a young mallard. But of course only few other species has a short bill like this one has. Short bill, long tail and white trailing edge. For the next one.
	3566 (4 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2021-09-22 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Found today by me. Very likely same as the bird seen in June at Kongelundsengen. See 3564 for details.
	3564 (2 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2021-09-25 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Studying the details of the head, this bird could very well be the same as the bird present on Kongelundsengen in June this year. The shape of the eye ring and the bill pattern look similar. Entry 3536-37. That bird I judged to be a young female. The plumage of the present bird is different, though. Must more adult like, why this could be the first 'breeding' plumage, attained by the species.

	3814 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2021-12-02 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. It was gone a single day when I visited, but looks like it's grown found of the place among its bigger cousins. Also: Mallard, Eurasian Moorhen.

	3853 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2021-12-25 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark Adult. ♀. Ullerup branddam. It was gone and I thought because of the cold, but apparently not. But the day after it was gone again. Still with an opening in the ice and the ducks present, why I guess it has another place it visits as well. Of course it could also be resting in the vegetation on the other side of the pond, out of sight. Hope it returns to be counted for the 2022 list that begins soon...

	4206 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2022-10-24 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. I was hoping for it, but still it is a surprise to see that the bird has returned. Of course it's not possible to say with certainty from this photo whether it is really the same bird as the one that was here last winter, but it's very likely.

	4268 (3 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2022-11-08 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam.

	4355 (5 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2022-11-21 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark Adult. ♀. Ullerup branddam. First swim for me this autumn. A light cover of ice blocking half the pond. So, does it look like the bird from last season? Well, it's grown now, a real lady bird with fancy hair and lipstick. And in fact, it does look like the yellow patch on top of the bill between the nostrils has the same shape which should suffice to send out a warm: Welcome back!

	4390 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2022-11-24 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark Adult. ♀. Ullerup branddam. Apparently likes this side of the pond now. Probably because of the easterly winds we have now had for several days.
	4418 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2022-12-01 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Very dark today even though the clock was only a quarter past 3pm. The bird swam across the pond the moment it saw me and hid under the water tree, as it often does when there is danger approaching...
	4533 (2 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2022-12-09 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark Adult. ♀. Ullerup branddam. Back again after a single visit without finding it. Today with ice on 3/4 of the pond why the narrow channel in the back is preferred.

	4780 (2 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2023-01-20 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Lovely surprise that she is back. She showed up a few days ago, after being away since New Year.

	4872 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2023-02-09 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Back in cover.

	5073 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2023-03-15 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Still present. Last year I saw it the last time for the season on March 16. But it is probably colder this year, which might cause a delayed desire to move on.
	5093 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2023-03-21 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam.
	5361 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2023-10-17 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark Adult. ♀. Ullerup branddam. Welcome back! It arrived yesterday, spotted by René Fokdahl. I went this morning, but it was obviously too early. All three mandarins were roosting under the water tree, as seen. Will try to get better photos tomorrow, also to confirm that it is the known female.
	5366 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2023-10-18 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark Adult. ♀. Ullerup branddam. Dinner time. The photo is not good enough to see the bill details, to compare with last season's bird. But it looks like there is another detail that might identify the individual: A horizontal black line at the top of the bill base. Checking other individuals online it looks like it is variable, whereas it looks the same on the present bird and the one from last season.
	5369 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2023-10-23 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark Adult. ♀. Ullerup branddam. Morning visit and the bird was still under the water tree as expected. In the middle, one third from the left edge.
	5433 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2023-10-23 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark Adult. ♀. Ullerup branddam. Late morning and still under the tree with the two males.

	5517 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2023-12-30 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Was gone but now back. Also present the day after.

	5685 (2 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2024-02-13 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark Adult. ♀. Ullerup branddam. Feeding time. All three present, and if you think they act submissive due to their smaller size, than the mallards, you couldn't be more wrong. Feisty little creatures.
	5648 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2024-02-15 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Still hiding under the water tree with first lover Mr. Right.
	5695 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2024-02-21 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Still hiding under the water tree with both first and second lover at a safe distance.
	5700 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2024-02-26 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Faithfully yours until X does us part. With Mr. Right.
	5730 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2024-03-06 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Fryd og Gammen, Fruen er i dammen! No panic, she's still here accepting the protective shoulder of Mr. Right. Or perhaps she just came back because it got colder further north, and she calculated that it would be better to return to the safe haven and a guaranteed nice afternoon meal, allthough she would have to accept the pathetic courtship of a disabled male, though in his best of prime...except for that missing left hand. I'm still not confident that she's satisfied with the home-grown pastures...
	5744 (1 photos) Mandarin Duck (Aix galericulata ) Same bird: 2 Mandarinand ~ Pato Mandarín ~ Mandarinand 2024-03-13 Tømmerupvej (Tårnby), Denmark ♀. Ullerup branddam. Still here and now with nesting boxes! Questions are: Are the boxes for the mallards or do mandarins accept them too? And being three days from last years departure date, will she feel the urge to go looking up the partner she had last year, assuming that that was what she was doing away all summer. Or is Mr. Right able to live up to his name..?
