renatagrieco: November 8, 2019 - Brazilian Teal (Amazonetta brasiliensis) These ducks are found in freshwater marshes, lakes, and ponds in parts of French Guiana, Peru, Uruguay, Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Guyana, Paraguay, Suriname, and Venezuela. They eat fruits, seeds, roots, and invertebrates, feeding in shallow water near the shore. Nesting on mounds of plant material surrounded by water, or sometimes in tree hollows, females incubate the eggs alone, but both parents care for the ducklings. -- source link
