Freshwater ducks are a type of waterfowl that inhabit freshwater habitats. Two examples of freshwater ducks are the TEAL and the gadwall. The TEAL is a small duck with a short neck and a round head, while the gadwall is a medium-sized duck with a long neck and a pointed head. Another example of a freshwater duck is the shoveler, which is a large duck with a long, broad bill. All three of these ducks are found in wetlands, ponds, and lakes.
