Pied Wagtail, Teal, Wood Pigeon

After an overnight snowfall and frost, the morning quite dull to begin with, eventually brightening up.  A Pied Wagtail by the road tested the camera and Topaz Denoise to the limits, at 20000 ISO.  A Woodpigeon perched nicely on a snowy branch over the path close to the hide, and a drake Teal was fairly close for a change; unfortunately I was looking straight into the light.
