Ah don't call him ugly, I photographed one this day last week in Fota Wildlife Park in Cork (Ireland) I love his (her) hairstyle!

Nice capture of an interesting bird.

Anyone know what type of duck it is??It's a Red-crested Pochard (Netta rufina)

For an example, see: http://stevenround-birdphotography.com/Red-crested%20Pochard.htm

I found him here: http://mawba.com/identify.htm

Sorry for the fact that it's horribly overexposed, but it's not a "keeper" (so forget about editing the RAW) and I was just trying to get that weird duck in the frame..:D
