With Garganey not being easy to see here in Seaton this year ( although I've had them in the past ) , I enjoyed the spectacle of a flock of 15(if I remember correctly) flying up the Gulf of Kalloni back in the Spring. I later on photographed these 2 on a pool which was very rewarding during my stay. It held lots of migrant waders ( you can see BW Stilt and Wood Sand in these shots) but the stunning sight of Garganey still caught my eye. What a photogenic duck...
