About The Green-winged Teal
Teal are the smallest European duck species. The birds are rapid flyers, flapping their wings quickly. This gives the impression that they are constantly in a rush. In large groups, they often make unexpected turns and tumbles in the air. Teal are active at night and make lots of noise.
