Description African Cape Teal, also known as Cape Wigeons, are small, attractive ducks that are a pale, mottled gray throughout, with distinctive pink bills and reddish eyes. The speculum is green and black, and is bordered broadly with white in front and behind. They are about 14 inches long. Differences in appearance between the sexes are minimal with females being slightly smaller, paler and less speckled and males may have undeveloped crests that can be heightened in times of excitement. Most numerous in the drier regions throughout Southern Africa, Cape Teal frequent shallow lakes and marshes in open country, but also lagoons, estuaries and tidal flats. They are mainly a nocturnal species, usually keeping to themselves in pairs or small flocks, and spend much of their time ashore.
