        I do know ii (a) but just can't think of it's name. It'll come to me ... eventually.

          1 - black necked swan
          2 - probably a white headed duck
          3 - crested screamer
          4 - moorhen

          If you get a guide next time you visit there is a large colour foldout sheet at the back which will enable you to ID many of the ducks and geese

            Thanks Stan. I have actually invested in some RSPB books, which will help me to ID most of these ducks and other birds.
