Why it matters
The masked duck is a unique species of stifftail distinguished by its broad wings and rounded tail, which it often keeps fanned out while swimming. These small, elusive ducks are prized by birders for their secretive nature and the striking black facial mask worn by breeding males, making them a rewarding and challenging find in the wetlands of the Caribbean and Central and South America.
