Description

Fulvous whistling ducks have long legs and necks, giving them a distinct profile when flying. When seen standing, fulvous whistling ducks look more goose-like, and actually, they are more closely related to geese than ducks. The male and female look alike with a tawny brown head, chest and belly and darker brown wings and back. Their white-tipped feathers form a silvery border between the belly and wings, and they have a blue-gray bill.
Today, nesting fulvous whistling ducks are abundant in rice-growing, freshwater wetland areas of south Florida. In winter, many fly south.
Captured in Florida, USA
