Description

Anas platyrhynchos

Deutsch: Die Stockente ist eine Vogelart aus der Familie der Entenvögel (Anatidae). Sie ist die in Mitteleuropa bekannteste wildlebende Ente und auch die Stammform der Hausente. Möglicherweise heißt sie „Stock“-ente, da sie zuweilen auf Weiden brütet, die auf den Stock gesetzt – also zurückgeschnitten – wurden.
