Northern Shoveler (Juvenile)

While searching for a Eurasian Wryneck, a Northern Shoveler arrived.

I was observing the usual waterside in the midstream of the Tama River, looking for a Eurasian Wryneck. The wryneck didn't appear, but a pair of Northern Shovelers arrived just as I was about to leave.
