A North American wild duck, Aythya valisineria, popular as a game bird

Yesterday, I received a great present from Mr. Webster, from Washington; a large basket of canvasback ducks and a large turkey.

North American wild duck valued for sport and food
Diving duck (Aythya valisineria), one of the most popular game birds. The male weighs about 3 lb (1.4 kg). During the breeding season he has a red head and neck and a black breast, with a white back and sides finely lined in gray. In eclipse (nonbreeding) plumage, he resembles the female, with a tan head and gray-brown back. Canvasbacks breed in northwestern North America and winter along the coasts from British Columbia and Massachusetts south to central Mexico. They prefer the roots of wild celery (eelgrass) but will eat many other plants and even some small animals
It visits the United States in autumn; particularly Chesapeake Bay and adjoining waters; so named from the markings of the plumage on its back
