Drake Scaup at Burrafirth
Possible female Scaup x Tufted Duck hybrid (left) & Tufted Duck at Burrafirth
Being similar in size to the accompanying Tufted Duck and having the hint of a crest note its more Scaup-like headshape and reduced black tip to the bill hence matching the description of some females of this hybrid combination in the Collins Guide.
