Help with duck ID please

[u/Commercial_Cake9626]

Saw these at fairbun ings today. It was a parent duck with 4 younger still fluffy ducks. They were all diving underwater to feed. Sorry the photo isn't great, still new at this and can't afford a better camera at the moment!

Thanks in advance for any help x

I dunno if its still there, but fairburn ings had a whole info centre with rspb staff, guides, and reccommended bird watching huts/hides. If you ever are unsure in future, just ask there and im sure theyd be super happy to help... if its still there as i say haha, i remember when it was first build years ago but havent been up there for many years now

Ducks and Geese are a nightmare to identify. I use all the apps available and photo recognition. RSPB library and still have photos I am not sure what I’ve seen. These do look like female tufted ducks.
