Almost all of the world population of Baikal Teal spend the winter in South Korea. This flock of Baikal Teal, Sibirionetta formosa, on the Geum river numbered around 800,000 birds in January 2024. Every time I visit South Korea for winter birding this incredible duck flock has become larger and when the Baikal Teal take off watching these ducks in flight is like some sort of aerial ballet.
