A few pairs of dabbling ducks. Dabblers do not dive to feed. Instead, they tip over at the water surface with their heads underwater and their tails in the air.

| Blue-winged teal, Anas discors. The male has a distinctive white crescent on the face. Click to enlarge. |
 |
| Northern shoveler ducks, Anas clypeata, famous for the large bill. The colorful male is on the right and behind the relatively drab but equally big-beaked female. |
 |
| The familiar mallard duck, Anas platyrhynchos. The green-headed male has a clear yellow bill. |
