| Adult drake Marbled Duck at Arlington Reservoir The pale subterminal band to the bill and bushy crest render this bird a drake. It was occasionally performing the neck-stretch-head-jerk display of the species described in BWP. Clearly undergoing its post-breeding moult it has commenced replacing its inner secondaries on both wings. |
