Meet the Wood Duck

Wood Ducks have large heads that have a crest that droops backwards, fairly short bills, long squared-off tails, and have a white border along their dark wings.

Wood Duck drakes have both green and purple on their heads. They also have bold white lines on their heads, cheeks, and neck areas. Wood Ducks have dramatic red eyes, reddish bills, black backs and tails, black and blue colored wings, tanish-yellow sides, reddish-brown chest and rump areas, and white bellies.
