This is the common Goldeneye or Whistler as they are sometimes called. These ducks are very abundant in Maine, especially along the coast. These birds breed throughout the forested areas of southern Canada and all of Maine. They, like the Wood Duck, prefer to nest in natural cavities and nest boxes. They are a very hardy bird and prefer colder weather than most ducks, being one of the latest fall migrants and can be found in Maine right up till freeze up time. The drake's bill is black and his legs and feet are orange. The hen's bill is dusky gray with a yellowish orange tip. Her feet are yellowish orange also. These game birds are very popular among waterfowl hunters.
These mounts are in our museum along with many other bird bird mounts as seen below. Click here to go to Birds Page 5 |
