Call duck

 

The smallest of all wildfowl this domestic duck is thought to have originated from the East Indies in the 18th century. Easy to train and with a very noisy call (hence the name) these ducks were originally used as decoys for attracting and catching other waterfowl. Today their small size and tameness has made them a very popular domestic breed that is widely bred for showing. There are many different varieties. The photos below show just one of them.
