my equipment

I am very fond of the Nikon brand, because it is the material that I have used since I was able to afford to buy a digital SLR camera.
I started with a D80 12 years ago. A light machine, very flexible ... really fun. I raised the bar 4 years ago with the D500, which is a Ferrari! Fast and accurate.
As lenses I mainly use a Nikkor 70 - 300 zoom, 8 years, a rather short focal length for the genre, it would take at least a 500, but I will equip myself in the future.
I had old binoculars that my wife gave me when we were young boyfriends. I was in love with it, but last winter broke irreparably, so I had to buy a new one, always Nikon, Aculon A211 10-22x50.

Dabbling Ducks in March 2020

Shoveler - Mestolone (Spatula clypeata)  Garganey - Marzaiola (Spatula querquerdula) Teal - Alzavola (Anas crecca) Mallard - Germano reale (Anas platyrhynchos) ... and a "find the intruder" test: answer to the picture without id. Northern Shoveler (male) - Maschio di Mestolone. Querciola Pond, Parco della Piana, Sesto Fiorentino, Florence, March 2020 In early march it's possible to observe several species of dabbling ducks in Tuscany. They are surface feeding small to large sized ducks in ponds and shallow water lakes, and in rivers too. Most of them are migratory species, but it's possible that many specimens have both sedentary and migratory habits. Nevertheless in march arrive the garganeys from the South (explaining the vulgar Italian name of ' marzaiola ') and most of the teals, as winter visitors, are now preparing to leave towards the North Europe. There are many Shovelers in this period. Garganeys, Teals, Shovelers and Mallard -
