Pink-headed Duck Colouring Page

Pink-headed Duck (Rhodonessa caryophyllacea). Country of origin: India, Bangladesh and Myanmar. Extinction: No extinction year is confirmed: it remains Critically Endangered and possibly extinct, with no widely accepted wild record since 1949. Cause: Wetland drainage, habitat disturbance and hunting explain its severe decline, although its final fate is unresolved. Special characteristics: The pink head and long neck, rounded crown and broad bill distinguish this unusual duck. How to Colour: Use rosy pink on the head and neck, dark brown on the body and a paler bill. Blend the pink softly along the neck and keep the curved edge of the crown clear.
