Absolutely stunning Northern Pintail! 🎥: @jontimmer_waterfowl #ducksunlimited #waterfowl #conservation #outdoors #ducks du | Ducks Unlimited

Not all ducks quack! Some, like this Northern Pintail male, have a short whistle-like chirp, as you can hear in this video. With their long necks and stunning plumage, Northern Pintails are the picture of elegance. But they’re not just about looks—they’re also incredible travelers. During migration, they can reach speeds of up to 48 miles per hour, flying through the night. The longest nonstop flight ever recorded for a Northern Pintail covered an impressive 1,800 miles. 📷: Mick Thompson | Bird
