Fulvous Whistling Duck (Dendrocygna bicolor): Another frequently encountered whistling duck.
Brazilian Duck (Amazonetta brasiliensis): A smaller, colorful duck.
Cinnamon Teal (Spatula cyanoptera): Known for the male's vibrant plumage.
Silver Teal (Spatula versicolor): A beautiful and common species.
Yellow-billed Pintail (Anas georgica): A graceful and swift flyer.
Speckled Teal (Spatula specularioides): Often found in significant numbers.

"Honestly the best wingshooting trip of my life. The high-volume dove shooting is exactly as advertised - non-stop action. The lodge is luxurious and the staff makes you feel like family."

"I was skeptical about the 'no internal flights' claim, but it's true. Landed in BA and was hunting by the afternoon. The mixed bag program allowed me to hunt ducks and perdiz in the same trip. Top notch."

"The food alone is worth the trip. The asados in the field were incredible. If you are looking for a luxury lodge near Buenos Aires, this is the one. Can't wait to return next season."
