Juvenile ducks have brown irises and are a pale, dull brown or chestnut colour with a darker stomach. The adults are darker in colour, though during a male duck's first winter, its iris will turn white.

The Madagascar pochard was actually thought to be extinct for 15 years until rediscovered in 2006 when just 22 birds were found at a remote lake. Their population crashed because rice cultivation and introduced fish destroyed their habitat. Conservation teams have been raising ducklings and creating artifical floating islands for them to nest safely. Pretty amazing comeack story for a species on the brink!
