Wood Duck

Wood Duck

The Wood Duck is without a doubt one of my favorite ducks; the male’s colors are just incredible and similar to that of its relative the Mandarin duck. The waterfowl hunting season for ducks in Quebec generally starts late September until late December. It is a duck that lives in tree hollows left over by other birds or rodents. It also has a very distinct whistle if alerted, soon after this the duck might fly away very quickly when you approach the waterways in the early morning.
