CommentThese birds were up-ending together. A film of water is clinging to the head of the nearer duck giving it a slightly surreal look. The relatively dark brown plumage, together with the lack of a white throat, indicates these are Chestnut Teal (either female or eclipse male), rather than similar Grey Teal.
