Mandarin Duck (male) in Full Breeding Plumage

This picture was taken on the lake at Llandrindod Wells on the 8th November 2014. It's the only Mandarin Duck there and no-one knows where it came from.

This has featured in my other album but I'm trying to put all birds and other wildlife in one album. No need to comment.
