Tufted duck Scientific name: Aythya fuligula

            Rocking an incredible hairdo, this is our most common diving duck nesting on flooded gravel pits, lakes and reservoirs. Tufted ducks feed on waterweed, plant seeds and water insects.The tufted duck (Aythya fuligula) is our commonest diving duck. The male is especially handsome and, like so many "black and white" birds, has purple, green and blue colours in his feathers
