Harlequin Duck (male)

Histrionicus histrionicus

Description:

A bird of fast-moving water, the Harlequin Duck breeds on fast-flowing streams and winters along rocky coastlines in the crashing surf.

Notes:

This bird is far away from it's regular range. A very rare...if not once in a lifetime sighting in this part of the world.
