Torrent Duck (Lifer) - Merganette des torrents
(Merganetta armata) B28I6579 Rio Utcubamba - North Peru
A very shy and difficult species, it took me 10 years to successfully take a picture.
The mobility and the power of these ducks is incredible, they are able to go up torrents with very high flows, like salmons. This species is increasingly rare because of the pollution of the rivers.
