Description

The Knob-billed Duck may cling into trees thanks to its strong claws. It occurs singly or in pairs, and also in small groups of 30-40, often with other duck species. It feeds both on land and in water. On land, it grazes and takes terrestrial insects. In shallow water, it swims, dabbles and wades, feeding on plant matter such as seeds of grasses, sedges and aquatic plants. It also catches aquatic invertebrates.
