  • Interesting article, especially after our waterfowl marathon in Regent's Park.

  • Yes, that's what I though MC,    but I have seen so many Tufted ducks around, it surprises me the numbers are so drastically down over the years,  makes me wonder how many we would see of these types of waterfowl if climate change hadn't had this effect.
