A hybrid Ring-necked/Tufted Duck was discovered by PM on his WEBS count today. The enlarged (rather poor) images indicate an obvious tuft, white nail on bill and greyish-white band around face. The flank is grey, but is surrounded by a white border and thhe head is purple-greenish depending on angle.

Interesting Eleanora's pics. It's not a species I've seen myself, but judging by the wing length in that top shot, it's surprising they're so often confused with hobbies.
