I'm taking pictures for my Science class. I can't find this bird in my birding guide. It was sitting next to a lake here in Florida. The ugly red eye and the white around the neck were the most distinguished features I was looking for. Anyone know what species it is?
They look like [URL="http://www.google.com/search?q=muscovy+duck&hl=en&safe=off&prmd=imvnse&t bm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=4O-dTsKdBYqeOuiftY4J&ved=0CEQQsAQ&biw=1280&bih=622"]Muscovy ducks[/URL].
muscovy, and they are cool ducks, often used for meaties but they are also known as the moquitoe duck, they love skeeters!
A friend of mine does rehab work in Montana and someone brought in a tiny one that had an injured wing or leg. Can't remember which. Took forever for it to heal and once it did it was too tame to release. It lives in the house now with her and the dogs and wears duck diapers. He's just the neatest thing but man is he a trouble maker! He's had surgery for eating ........ a nickle I think? Penny? Anyway, whichever it is, is highly toxic and made him sick and they had to do surgery to remove it. He's always into something!
In Florida they form these lines and cross the street..I actualy dont mind it..it's cute..
