White-faced Whistling Duck - Dendrocygna viduata

I wonder what this subsaharian duck thinks of the icey ponds of Belgium in the middle of February here at the Planckendael zoo. I think he is adapting quite well though!

The white-faced whistling duck is a whistling duck that breeds in sub-Saharan Africa and much of South America. This species is gregarious, and at favoured sites, the flocks of a thousand or more birds arriving at dawn are an impressive sight. As the name implies, these are noisy birds with a clear three-note whistling call.
