goldeneye with ducklings

[turlough]

I usually only see Goldeneyes (Bucephala clangula) in our stream in late Winter/early Spring. This year one of the pairs looks to have nested here too because earlier this week I saw this mum with her three tiny babies.

Oh, precious little fluffballs! I've never seen goldeneye babies before as we're not in their breeding range, so they're a winter bird for us. Here we call them Common Goldeneye to distinguish them from Barrow's Goldeneye.
