Courtesy of breeding ponds owner (Mr Karol, greetings and thank you) I have managed to take first pictures of Eurasian Teal. And not only Eurasian Teal, also of Green Sandpiper, Kingfisher, Goshawk, Common Pochard, Tufted Duck and who knows what else you are able to photograph in such a charming, beautiful place like this. Lowered mirror of the water caused a feeding of other birds also, Crane among them. It is a shame that photographed male didn’t have any company, gallery would be more interesting then. Oh well, you have to start somewhere. Teals are very small representatives of Anatidae. Its weight does not exceed 0.5 kg with a wingspan slightly bigger than 0.5 meter.

From my second encounter with the Eurasian teal I have a few shots that enrich the gallery of this species. Sadly the photos were taken around midnight, on a cloudy night or, to be more precise, a Polar Day, and there was a lack of light to take good, dynamic photos.  Nevertheless, there weren’t any problems with taking some static pictures of a pair of Eurasian teals.
