The Ring-Necked Duck (Aythya collaris) is a North American diving duck found in freshwater ponds and lakes.  The duck’s name comes from the drake’s cinnamon colored neck ring.  The male also has two white rings around its gray bill, a shiny black head, black back, a white line on the wings, a white breast and yellow eyes. The female has a grayish brown head and body with a dark brown back and a dark bill.  The breeding habitat of the ring-necked duck is lakes and ponds in the northern United States and Canada. Ring-necked ducks pair up during spring migration and then separate after breeding.  These ducks are omnivores and feed mainly by diving or dabbling for submerged plants such as pondweed, wild rice, coontail and snails.  These two male ring-necked ducks were photographed while swimming in the Bubbling Ponds Fish Hatchery near Cornville, Arizona, USA.
