caption: The image shows a male American Widgeon (Anas querquedula) with its distinctive white and brown feathers glistening in the sunlight as it gracefully glides through the water. Its long, slender body is a mottled brown and white, with a white patch on its head and a white line running down its back. Its wings are tucked in close to its body, and its tail is slightly raised above the surface of the water, creating ripples that spread out around it.
