This duck looks almost completely black—until sunlight reveals a hidden green glow.
The Cayuga Duck is an American domestic duck famous for its deep black plumage, which can shimmer with an emerald-green sheen in the right light. As the birds age, some develop striking white feathers, creating an unusual pattern across their dark bodies. Originally associated with the northeastern United States, Cayugas are calm, hardy ducks valued for both their beauty and adaptability.
