Radwell Long-tailed Duck

After a fairly ordinary winter at Radwell, my late April WeBS count comes up trumps with (what seems to me) to be a not far off adult summer Long-tailed Duck.  But keen to hear other opinions.

Potton Sparrowhawk - 04/04/2014

Just finished reading the quick notes manual of my new camera, received earlier in the day, when I looked out of the patio window to try a few shots and saw this beauty sitting on our garden fence. Hope to improve technique with time after learning about RAW and other camera settings!
