CouesWhitetail Report post Posted August 25, 2012 Cool bird to see! I have yet to see one really well in AZ. I thought I flushed one once but wasn't ever sure. Glad you got a pic! Black-bellied whistling tree duck is what I know them as (they nest in hollow trees). http://www.ducks.org...-whistling-duck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
