Information about the Wood Duck:
The Wood Duck is a medium-sized perching duck. They grow
to about 19 inches long and a wingspan of around 30 inches.
The adult male has striking coloration whereas as in most
ducks the female's coloration is more drab. The range of
the Wood duck is from central North America to the east
coast as well the Pacific coast from British Columbia to
northern Mexico. Due to overhunting the Wood Duck was almost
exterminated in the late 1800s, but thanks to the passing
of laws to protect them the Wood Duck is the most common
waterfowl species breeding in the US. It is the official
waterfowl of the state of Mississippi.
