The Muscovy is a semi- domestic duck that is normally found close to human habitation. There have been several of these birds at Ferrymoor this year. I don't quite know how they got there though. May be someone has off loaded them because of no longer needing them or they have become wild. They do not go hungry though as they are being fed by many regular and passing visitors. There are many different colours including White, Brown and Black.They all seem to have a reddish coloured face. This bird originates from Central and South America
