This duck is so brightly colored that it almost glows orange beside the water.
The Ruddy Shelduck lives across lakes, rivers, and wetlands from Asia to Europe, often seen in pairs moving calmly along the shore. Its rich cinnamon-orange body and pale head make it stand out instantly among other waterbirds.
A bold splash of color on quiet waters, yet a graceful traveler of the wetlands.
