Red crested pochard or pochard x red crested pochard? |
Above - the Chew bird, reckoned by some to be a pochard x red-crested pochard hybrid. Photos from 27 June 2004.
Above - the Meare Heath bird: 30 April 2005 (left), and 25 May 2003 (right). Both the Chew and the Meare Heath birds have a small pink tip to the bill.
