The Teal is the smallest dabbling duck in the Americas with an average length of 14”, and an average weight of .65 lbs. The drake has a cinnamon colored head with an iridescent green/purple patch traveling from its eyes to the nape of its neck. On the other hand the hen is mottled brown with a darker line that travels from their beak through its eyes. The
teal is naturally a rapid and agile flyer, which can often be found in
boreal forest, grasslands, sedge meadows, and deciduous parklands.
The Green-Winged Teal is the second most commonly hunted duck in North America The
beauty of both the male and female Green-Winged Teal in motion can be
captured through the gorgeous sculpture “Busting Out”- Green-Winged
Teal Wall Mount. This attractive wall mount is part of
our Master Carver Series where Master Carver Sam Nottleman has taken
his knowledge and experience of carving waterfowl and captured the
excitement of the Green-Winged Teal flushing from its cover. This exceptional sculpture is a must have for any Sam Nottleman Collector just behind the Mallard.
