Pochard drake at Monikie CP

Black-headed Gull 2XHT, yellow. I'd think it has a direct link to the other gull below? Not related, it's an Ythan bird ringed as a juvenile on 17/7/2014, last seen there on 3/4/2020.

No doubt here, 2XHJ white. Ringed as a chick in the Borders Moorfoots on 20/06/2020, this is the first sighting since then.

Surely the inspiration for "the Ugly Duckling". Muscovy Duck (drake)

Looks like very bad acne (or haemorrhoids)
