Garganey (Anas querquedula) stock photo

Garganey (Anas querquedula) The Garganey is a scarce and very secretive breeding duck in the UK. It is smaller than a Mallard and slightly bigger than a Teal. The male is most easily recognised by a broad white stripe over the eye. In flight, it shows a pale blue forewing. It feeds by 'dabbling' – dipping its bill into the water to catch insects. Garganeys are listed as a Schedule 1 species. This duck is a summer visitor, spending the winter in Africa. Although large flocks can be found in their wintering grounds, they are usually only seen in pairs or small groups in the UK. Animal Stock Photo

From social media ads to billboards, PowerPoint presentations to feature films, you're free to modify, resize and customize every asset on iStock — including all Animal images and footage — to fit your projects.
