What’s up with the Duck?
The Ruddy Duck is wild and local. To be certain of a sighting, visit the
Northwest Exhibit at the Portland Zoo.
The Ruddy is a tiny duck, of the stiff-tail, Diving Duck category.
He has a sky-blue bill, rusty red plumage and a mating display that defies description.
The Ruddy Duck mates for life and stays with his wife to raise their ducklings.
