Fulvous Whistling-Duck

The Fulvous Whistling-Duck is a tawny-brown waterfowl known for its whistling call and social nature. It thrives in tropical and subtropical wetlands, feeding on seeds and aquatic plants. Historically seen at the Salton Sea, its sightings are now rare due to shrinking water and habitat loss. Preserving and restoring wetlands can help keep this species—and other migratory birds—flocking back.
