If you want to spot a Redhead bird, you notice as its name suggests. This bird is identified by its cinnamon red head. However, the rest of his body is not red. Its tail and neck are black and weave into a spectrum of gray.

As a North American diving duck, Redheads can be found in seasonal wetlands including the prairie pothole region of the Midwest. During winter, they migrate and live serenely as flocks on lakes and bays. During migration season, Redheads are seen flying with other species such as scaup, American Coots, and Canvasbacks. Having a length of 16.5-21.3 in (42-54 cm) and a weight of 22.2-52.9 oz (630-1500 g), Redheads are somewhat small.

They usually dive into shallow waters to look for insects and plants. Although when they move south, their diet is prone to vegetarian food sources. They even choose dense marshes to build a nest and grow their families. Redheads live peacefully without having many predators.

If a Redhead dies, it’s probably because of a disease. Having this detachment from the wild has given Redheads a serene quality that makes natural scenery more peaceful and pleasant.
