Marius, congratulations on your Photo of the Day
Cheers

thank you Paul, much appreciated

Congrats on the photo of the day. That is one unusual looking duck.

thank you Russell

Congrats for being picked as Photo of the Day! I've had Muscovy Duck for dinner, but this is my first view of a living specimen. I was not expecting the colorful knobs and caruncles on the head and face. It is a very striking bird. Nice shot. Bob

thank you, Bob, I appreciate the compliment. (i trust dinner was good)

Even if I saw this species already, this photo is just amazing. It animated me to look at Wikipedia to learn more about this kind of duck. Anyway, great photo Marius.

thank you Klemens , much appreciated
