About These Birds

Mexican Duck

メキシコガモとも呼ばれるこの種は、メキシコ中央高原および米国南西部の湿地や河川に生息する中型のカモです。褐色の羽毛と緑色の嘴が特徴で、マガモと近縁ですが、独立した種として扱われています。生息地の破壊と狩猟圧力により個体数が減少しており、保全が求められています。

American Black Duck

北米東部の湿地、沼、河川に生息するカモ(体長53〜61cm)。全体的に暗褐色でマガモの雌に似るが、嘴の色や翼鏡の色が異なる。Anas rubripes(アメリカクロガモ)は海岸の塩性湿地から内陸の淡水域まで幅広く利用し、マガモとの雑種が多く観察される。Anatidae科。
