peräkanaa

Peräkanaa, also known as the European wild duck, is a species of duck native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa. It is a medium-sized duck, with a body length of about 45-55 cm and a wingspan of 80-95 cm. The male peräkanaa has a distinctive green head and neck, which is unique among ducks, and a black body with white wing bars. The female is brown with a white wing bar. Peräkanaa is known for its loud, distinctive calls, which include a series of "quack" sounds and a "kra-kra-kra" call. It is a dabbling duck, feeding on aquatic plants, seeds, and insects. Peräkanaa breeds in wetlands and marshes, often nesting in tree holes or on the ground. It is a migratory bird, with populations in northern Europe and Asia moving south for the winter. Peräkanaa is not currently considered threatened, but habitat loss and pollution pose potential threats to the species. It is a popular game bird in some regions, and is also kept as a pet in some countries.
