As well as a deep love of Angling, I also have a love of the nature and surroundings that my sport leads me to.
On my recent travels, I came across this duck-like creature and after browsing my encyclopidia of British birds, I'm still at a loss when coming to a conclusion about it's breed.

Can anybody enlighten me please?

Thanks very much Twainy...that's the one!
I wondered if it was a Muscovy, but the picture of one in my book looked very different (paintings not photographs).

You're a star mate.
