That's not real!
Hello, I changed the article in the section where it stated that Laysan Ducks are nearly flightless. Tell me if I'm wrong but this bird is a poor flyer when compared with another ducks' flight capability but it is far from being classed as "nearly flightless". Here is a video showing my point https://www.arkive.org/laysan-duck/anas-laysanensis/video-06a.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by 181.165.244.75 (talk) 15:55, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
