Autumn Avians: Duck Season

Autumn brings dozens of species to overwinter in New England, but none quite as exciting as waterfowl. While warblers can be tricky to identify and hard to spot, waterfowl sit on the water unobstructed (most of the time), offering perfect views for any birdwatcher. Learn the best places to find ducks in Massachusetts, their wide range of adaptations, behaviors, plumage, and our own cultural connections to this diverse group of birds.
