The Wild Bird Club of the Philippines survey done in June 19-25, 2004 did not include the Philippine duck but recorded other ducks such Wandering Whistling-Duck (Dendrocygna arcuata) and Tufted Duck(Aythya fuligula)- the largest concentration of this migratory species so far in the Philippines. I would be happy to know if the species exist. Perhaps if a picture of gamaw can be taken then perhaps we may know for certain if it is the threatened Philippine duck.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
