Muscovy duck

The Muscovy duck is a large perching duck which is native to Mexico and South America.

This species normally inhabits forested swamps, lakes and streams, and often roosts in trees at night. The wild Muscovy duck is all-dark apart from the white in the wings, with long talons on its feet and a wide flat tail.

The male is 86cm long and weighs 3kg, much larger than the 64cm long, 1.3kg female. His most distinctive features are a bare red face with a pronounced caruncle at the base of the bill and a low erectile crest of feathers. The drake has a dry hissing call, and the hen a quiet trilling coo.
