canvasback ducks

 

The Mid Atlantic states contain important habitats for ducks, geese, brant, and other waterfowl. Many habitats sustain year round populations of waterfowl.

During the winter season, waterfowl populations increase as migrating fowl seek food and shelter in woodlands, upland areas, marshes, rivers, saltwater estuaries, and the open ocean.
