User's notes

Given that there were Chestnut Teal nearby (males and females) we are suggesting a female Chestnut in this sighting, though we are open to suggestions of a Grey Teal.

Yeah, tricky. Think I'll leave this one for Leo! I've checked it against our photos, including one of both species roosting together, and I'm still unsure.
