June Birding Doldrums

Migrants migrated and singers mated, things go quiet this month, so a quick day in Brum to seek out Moshman's sit'n'go book. Before I went to Oz, a splendid male wood duck lived at Brindley Wharf and I believe the smaller smudge in this picture is he, but in eclipse plumage. Not a true wild bird of course but only a couple of centuries less so than the Canada geese also in shot.
