Detalles de la observación

One female seen close to the Nagara Riverbank associating with three Mallards. Round white spot below and back from the eye. White patch in front of the eye and a slight white line down along the neck. Brown head & body. Short stubby tail sometimes flicked-up. Dark short unmarked wings flashed open just once. Smaller than the Mallards it was swimming with near the tetrapods. Jerky movement through the water - similar to a Moorhen’s. Not shy but as it was after sunset, and I only had my smartphone, I could only take a few photos & video in the fast-fading light. This is a First Record for this duck species in Gifu City. Next day, it was not there.
