Domestic Muscovy Duck
Cairina moschata domestica
26.0101, -80.2751
Field Notes
Description:
Skull, pelvis, sternum.
Photos edited for visibility, only lightened enough to be seen clearly.
Habitat:
Grassy area and roadside along a canal.
Notes:
Fond only several yards away from wings and feathers, but those pictures might be considered too disturbing so I did not post them on this spotting.
I also have personal specimen to confirm the skeletal remains.
Unfortunately despite being a widely distributed species, there is a lack of decent and accessible osteological references for the Muscovy duck.
