One short meeting, probably with a runaway from a farm, because this duck is a natural inhabitant of Northern America. It had been seen in Poland before, probably farm runaways, too. The pictures were taken in Holland, where the duck was sitting by the road. It wasn’t at all shy, but when I came too close, it flew away. These ducks can weigh up to 5 kg and the wingspan is up to 75 cm.
