[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This peculiar musk duck has become popular in Sweden, because they eat snails. Especially a sort of Spanish forest snail, that is very hated among gardeners. Those snails eat everything and survive almost everything. Except the bek of this funny kind of duck. I do not know if the musk duck has become like this by nature, or if it is "man made."

Hi Monica, it does look similar to a Muscovy Duck. Check it out on the Internet.
The gardeners would love it for the snails. I saw my first Muscovies a few months ago, and I though they were geese, but later found out they were Ducks. Not as pretty and the Mallards or Mandarin Ducks. Well shown.

Agree this is a funny duck, but I find that the shot is over exposed.
