We do have a feral population of Mandarin in Northumberland, and the drakes do get around the ponds occasionally, but the females don`t seem to wander about. Which is a shame as i think they are attractive birds.

Very jealous of your Garganey - there's one in Antrim at the moment I think, but that's a bit far
