Ducks are dabbling waterfowl found on freshwater ponds and marshes across the Northern Hemisphere, known for their distinctive plumage and gregarious nature. Males typically display bold head and body coloring—as in this pattern—while females are more subdued. Ducks are omnivorous foragers, tipping forward to feed on aquatic plants and invertebrates, and they remain popular symbols of waterfowl beauty in both nature and decorative art.
