Wigeons are not in the numbers as pintails at Hyoko but there is a sprinkling of them about the place.
These photos taken between December 30, 2011 and January 20, 2012.

You got some great photos of this species Russell.
It is pretty common up here but mainly in autumn when they seem to be shy and are in drab eclipse plumage, in winter there area few bobbing around offshore and indeed there is a lone drake on the river near my flat now......
Hi, I come from Noushka's blog, they are so beautiful pictures thanks.
Southern Pintails are so pretty too.
see you

Great photos, Russell!
A gorgeous series, I especially like the 4 last ones!
Cheers!
Very nice series!
Oh, and they let you get so close :)
Beautiful!
Beautiful images as usual. Just awesome!
Here in the south, wigeon is much more numerous than the pintail! Lovely shots of the birds while landing. I could never get a shot like that.
