I think this little beauty is a Eurasian Wigeon.

Lovely additions Ed, the Lapwing certainly are stonkingly stunning in the sunlight.... although everything looks better in sunshine lol

Lovely photo's Ed, I have only managed a distant photo of a lapping so far. Merlin App agrees with your wigeon.

Not the best snap. I have a lot to learn about 'Birds in flight' photography.

There's nothing much wrong with those flight shots, Ed, apart from you didn't manage to jump up to eye-level, and navigate your way slightly in front of them
Like snappy said, lovely light and blue sky, no complaints here, except it wasn't here

Thank you PB. At my age my jumping high days are over. I guess I could bring along a large step ladder next time I go somewhere.
May get some curious glances from people. May get a "you've been framed" moment as well.

Always nice to get a deer Ed. That's a great photo of the Sedge Warbler, nice timing.
