Media notes
Distant (nearly 1 km) view of part of a large flock of roosting ducks (mostly Anas discors), with nine visible Dendrocygna bicolor.
Observation details
Unexpected (wrong habitat). Photos. All 9 were perched on the shore with a large flock of about 200 Anas discors and 30 Anas clypeata (we saw this flock from a great distance, nearly 1 km, and did not notice the Dendrocygna until analyzing photos later). Some people spooked the flock and then we spotted for the first time a group of 4 In flight and then landing on open water with other ducks.
