Lesser Scaup

The Lesser Scaup is a rare but regular vagrant to Scotland. It is a North American species which seems prone to vagrancy although there is always the possibility of escapees from wildfowl collections.
These images were all taken at Hogganfield Loch in Glasgow. In the early winter of 2008/2009 there were briefly two birds were present. One remained for several weeks until it was forced away by the almost complete freezing of the loch in late December. In February 2010 another bird (or is it the same bird?) returned to the loch. In the prevailing icy conditions it showed very well close in to the car park in the ice free area.
