African Black Duck
(Anas sparsa)

This section is still under construction! Although mostly functional, there is still plenty of information missing and many images are waiting to be added. We are working as quickly as we can...
The monogomous African black duck is an almost entirely black duck with irregular white specks on its back and an iridescent green/purple patch on the wing. It is a medium-sized duck and sexes are similar in size but when seen in pairs the male is slightly larger. The bill is grey/black.
Juveniles are browner with whiter underparts.
