Archibald You must be quackers! More info | Nov 20, 2018 00:49 | #29807 Lame-Duck wrote in post #18754811 This is the question everyone asks. The ring around the neck is a very pale, barely visible ring. The ring on the bill, however, is very noticeable. So why wasn't it named a ring-billed duck? I have no idea. Smarter people than me named this duck, so there must be a good reason for the name they gave it. In the photo below, you can barely see the reddish colored ring around the neck of the duck. ![]() Wow, okay, thanks for clearing that up!
