apparently I failed in my first attempt!
just wanted to say that after years of trying to spot bearded tits we were at last rewarded with flocks of them this weekend gone, got some great shots of them along with one of the ybw up close when actually looking out for firecrests!
anyhow, main reason for posting this was to see if anyone can identify the ducks in this rather poor quality photo, they were far off and i was battling with the back light but I think the body and wing markings are clear enough for anyone in the know...
Hi Bazza don't panic if you've post photos it's not your fault look here www.rspb.org.uk/.../389440.aspx

Hi Bazza
These look like wigeon. The white belly is a good clue, and you can just about make out the white panel in the secondaries on the upperwing of the first bird.

Well done Bazza on getting photo up.
