This article will cover many of the ducks you can observe in New Jersey. With the exception of the oceanic ducks and the Teal, Grebes, Coots and a few others, which I will highlight in future pieces.

New Jersey is home to a staggering number of ducks and other waterfowl. Especially in the Winter. It’s amazing what you can see here. What’s even more astounding is that all of the photographs in this article were taken in one location. The Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge, in Oceanville, NJ.
