| Description |
Afrikaans: Afgeneem te Pitsford-natuurreservaat. Daar is nie baie voëls op die eintlike reservaat oor nie, maar op die damparkeerterrein is daar baie watervoëls en Waterkwikkies (M. alba yarrellii). Die Groenkopeend is 'n groot en swaar eend. Dit het 'n lang lyf en 'n lang en breë snawel. Die mannetjie het 'n donkergroen kop, 'n geel snawel, is hoofsaaklik pers-bruin op die bors en grys op die lyf. Die wyfie is hoofsaaklik bruin met 'n oranje snawel. Dit broei in alle dele van die VK in die somer en winter, waar ook al geskikte vleilandhabitats is, hoewel dit skaarser is in hooglandgebiede. Groenkopeende in die VK kan inwonende broeiers of migrante wees - baie van die voëls wat in Ysland en Noord-Europa broei, oorwinter hier.
English: Taken at Pitsford NR. There is not many birds left on the actual NR but on the reservoir car park there is plenty of water birds and Pied Wagtails (M. alba yarrellii). The mallard is a large and heavy looking duck. It has a long body and a long and broad bill. The male has a dark green head, a yellow bill, is mainly purple-brown on the breast and grey on the body. The female is mainly brown with an orange bill. It breeds in all parts of the UK in summer and winter, wherever there are suitable wetland habitats, although it is scarcer in upland areas. Mallards in the UK may be resident breeders or migrants – many of the birds that breed in Iceland and northern Europe spend the winter here. Status: Amber |
