| 09/05/22 | BLUE-WINGED TEAL | Marlow Low Grounds | 1 | L Evans |
| The female-type still present and showing well. Has Shoveler genes in its heritage but hardly surprising the amount of hybridisation between these two species in North America. Has remnants of the white facial disc on one side of the face only. | ||||

| 22/04/22 | BLUE-WINGED TEAL | Marlow Low Grounds | 1 | L Evans |
| The long-staying female-type still present on the Flood Alleviation Pool. Facial disc/pale area has now moulted out to all dark, leaving a pale eye-ring and a typical pale loral spot. Plumage typically dark (not pale or cinammon), with dark chocolate-scalloped sides and flanks and bill size typical and well within normal variation of this Nearctic duck. | ||||

| 29/03/22 | BLUE-WINGED TEAL | Marlow Low Grounds | 1 | D L Cleal |
| 09:35 | Confirmed present by DS but had been seen to fly to the larger lake where it was hidden for some 40 mins before swimming into view, (somewhat obscured by reeds) around the Eastern edge of the main lake. Very hard to pick out against bankside vegetation. | |||

| 28/03/22 | BLUE-WINGED TEAL | Marlow Low Grounds | 1 | L Evans |
| 18:00 | fem. Found by David Bevan at about 3pm. A female-type with an unusually extensive pale loral and facial area but not outside of the variation of this species. Nothing to suggest a Shoveler hybrid, of which many have previously been recorded in the UK. A semi eye-ring present, dark brown forehead and crown, nice scalloped chocolate-brown flank and sides and extensive pale blue forewing. Yellow leg colour very dull suggesting first year. Very difficult to separate from Cinnamon Teal but plumage markedly paler and greyer. A superb find and a first for the county. | |||
