Bláönd – Blue-Winged Teal – Anas discors

American vagrants are always a great treat for birders. The Blue-winged Teal  (Anas discors) is a very rare American vagrant here in Iceland. It is a small duck and a common breeding bird in North-America.
This male was spotted in April 2013 in Stokkseyri, South Iceland.
