An informational sign, likely found at a zoo or wildlife park in Mysuru, India, is presented in an outdoor setting. The sign, oriented vertically, provides details about the Ruddy Shelduck, also known as the Brahminy Duck (Tadorna ferruginea). The top left of the sign displays the bird's common and scientific names in English, along with "ಚಕ್ರವಾಕ" in Kannada. Below this, "Family: Anatidae" is clearly visible. The sign is divided into sections, with text in both English and Kannada. On the right side of the sign is a prominent image of a Ruddy Shelduck floating on water, showcasing its distinctive orange-brown plumage and white head. Below the image, a QR code is visible, likely providing additional digital information. The English text details "Characteristic Features" such as length (58-70cm) and weight (925-1640g), describing the bird as orange-brown, monogamous, often found in pairs, with white, black, and green wings. It notes the male's black collar during breeding season, adult moult leading to flightlessness from mid-July to September, and its nocturnal nature. Further sections cover "Breeding Season: March," "Age of Maturity: 2 years," "Clutch size: 6-12," and "Life Span: 10-31 years." "Natural Diet" includes tender green shoots, roots, grasses, molluscs, crustaceans, aquatic insects, fishes, and small reptiles. The "Zoo Diet" lists poultry feed, soybeans, veg greens, lucerne, garlic, and bread. "Habitat" specifies lakes, rivers, reservoirs, and sandbanks, and "Distribution" covers North Western Africa, South-eastern Europe, and Asia. The background of the image shows green foliage and a wire mesh fence, suggesting an enclosure. The lighting indicates it is daytime. A small red circular logo is present at the bottom right of the sign.
