kent Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 I shouldn't ever discount anything with the changes occurring with migrant wildfowl populations, weird weather etc. Its happened with other birds. We got Eagle owls here the RSPB wanted to kill them and said they were escaped captive bred but no evidence of that I have seen or heard and you might think with the money they fetch someone might be shouting "their mine?"

washwildfowler Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Considering I see a video of it yesterday ,I would say it was far from being pinioned as it flew away . So you might get a chance to frighten it yet Fenboy .😁😁 Edited June 8, 2015 by washwildfowler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anser2 Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 It would be intersting to see a clip or still from the video of the pintail flying as in the posted picture you can see the primary feathers ( flight feathers ) on its right side ,but none are visable on its left side ( the side towards the camera ) , Just tertial and scapular feathers. Wild Pintail are excedingly rare in England at this time of year with just a handful staying to breed and 99% away in the Arctic tundra breeding .
