Harlequin Duck
This
beautiful duck is incredibly difficult to see as it patrols the rocky marine shorelines
in search of shellfish. Many of these ducks were killed in the Exxon Valdez oil-spill
in 1989, and studies are still being conducted to see how these ducks continue
to be affected by the oil that remains in the environment. Learn
