Wood Duck Aix sponsa - sighting reported by Kim Soderling (FIN). On the 20th November, an observation with better light conditions allowed the observer to correct his identification to Mandarin duck Aix galericulata, female. This bird may well be from the feral population that established in Porto Santo Island since 2012.
