CLOSED: Two more ducks from Martin Mere

Any suggestions most welcome please.

Eurasian Wigeons I believe

#1 is Eurasian Wigeon

Not sure on #2 offhand, I'll take another look tomorrow.

The second pic reminds me of a female or juvernile Blue-winged Teal (Anas discors). http://davesgarden.com/guides/birdfiles/go/18/

Ooops! Forgot to take that second look ;-)

Yep, I'd agree with Blue-winged Teal, though more likely an eclipse-plumage male. Was the pic taken in a zoo?

Edit: forgot to notice the title ;-) . . . . Martin Mere has a collection of captive ducks, so yes, a zoo pic
