The rosybill is a pochard duck with a rosy red beak and black / gray plumage, originally from Chile and now widespread. The Latin name of the rosybill duck, (Netta peposaca), is explained like this: Netta is Greek for 'duck', pepo is Latin for 'melon' and sakos is Greek for 'shield'. The rosybill is the duck with the melon-shield. This refers to the swelling at the base of the bill on the male. (There is a saying that nothing good will come of something named with a mixture of Greek and Latin - for example 'television'. The rosybill 'proves' the rule.) Second photo of a rosybill duck: .

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. This male ring-necked duck was photographed swimming in the Bubbling Ponds Fish Hatchery near Cornville, Arizona, USA.
