Spotted
This refers to an individual Whistling-Duck (genus Dendrocygna) that could not be identified to a specific species. This often occurs due to distant views, poor light, or the presence of non-typical plumage.
Where to spot
Found globally in tropical and subtropical wetland habitats where any Dendrocygna species occurs. This designation is used when a positive species identification isn't possible.
How to spot
Focus on general Whistling-Duck characteristics: long legs, upright posture, and whistling vocalizations. Note overall size, general color patterns, and any distinguishing marks, even if a full species ID isn't achieved.
When to spot
Can be observed year-round depending on the specific location and the species present. Best seen during morning and evening activity periods.
