Cairina moschata
Muscovy ducks are large, heavy ducks with short legs and broad tails and wings. Wild Muscovy ducks are all black with white patches on the upper and under wing. Some of the ducks have a green and purple gloss. The domesticated muscovy ducks look both heavier and coarser than those found in the wild population and can come in different colors.
There were 3 or 4 of these muscovy ducks at Tuscwilla Park in Ocala, Florida.
