Black-bellied Whistling-Duck — size comparison — facts and sources
The black-bellied whistling duck uses warm American wetlands, ponds and fields and often rests on branches. It also feeds ashore, visiting fields after dusk for seeds, plants and invertebrates.
Whistles maintain contact. Nests usually occupy hollows or boxes, sometimes ground. Both parents incubate and lead young. Females may also lay in another pair’s nest.
