Whistling duck species (or possible hybrids?) at Vogelpark Avifauna?

  • Media owner KevinB

I'm not totally sure what species of whistling ducks these are. I saw them in a mixed waterfowl aviary at Vogelpark Avifauna on August 28th, 2022. Signage was not present, and these ducks look different to any of the Dendrocygna species listed for Avifauna.

Mr Gharial
These might be Philippine ducks, which were present in this aviary at the time of my visit.

Might be hybrids with Spotted whistling ducks, but I don't know if those can produce offspring

@Mr Gharial Nothing wrong with them being whistling ducks and certainly not hybrids with a different genus.

They look like regular wandering whistling ducks to me.

@lintworm I don't see the greyish face and the white spots on the chest in any of the images of Dendrocygna arcuata I found with a quick search...
