Le Canard Pompon,un palmipède qui porte fièrement le « chignon ».... The Crested duck,
Le pompon sur sa tête serait vraisemblablement le résultat d’une mutation et d’une déformation du crâne, par le biais d’une gène dominant
The Crested is a breed of domestic duck. It was probably brought to Europe from the East Indies by Dutch ships. It has its appearance because it is heterozygous for a genetic mutation causing a deformity of the skull.
It was a very pleasant afternoon for taking a walk ! I was happy to see this duck again today !
