Bufflehead
Duck Decoy
The Bufflehead
is the smallest diving or sea duck in North America. The name buffalo head or
"bufflehead" is a direct reference to the duck's large-headed appearance. These
ducks are strikingly beautiful. The male is black and white with a large white
patch extending from the eye to the back of the head. The female is dark brown
above, paler below and has a small white cheek patch. The male is slightly larger
than the female. The Bufflehead is a diver and unlike other diving ducks can
take flight from water without having to run along the surface.
