The banded duck, also known as the band-tailed duck, is a species of duck that is native to North America. They are typically found in freshwater habitats such as lakes, rivers, ponds, and marshes.
Banded ducks have a distinctive band of white feathers on their neck and a chestnut-colored patch on their breast. They are medium-sized ducks with a wingspan of approximately 26-30 inches.
These ducks are known for their loud quacking calls and their ability to dive and swim underwater to feed on aquatic plants, insects, and small fish.
Banded ducks are migratory birds, with populations breeding in northern North America and wintering in southern regions. They are often seen in large flocks during the winter months.
The conservation status of the banded duck is currently of least concern, as they have stable populations and are not facing any significant threats to their survival. However, habitat loss and degradation continue to be a concern for these ducks, as it impacts their ability to find suitable breeding and wintering grounds.
