I'm sorry, it is a mandarin duck. They are related to the wood duck, and it appears that they are also to be found in the wild in very small numbers, like the wood duck. They are cavity nesters.
An interesting thing to note, is that 5 years ago, I actually found a dead duck in the flue of my chimney as I repaired the damper. It was by all appearances, a wood duck. The chimney pots are ceramic, and have a total of 4 openings that are horizontal.
I cannot explain why i had a dead duck in my chimney. Weird stuff like this just seems to follow me.
They had these things in the ponds at audubon gardens, in memphis, and we used to go feed the things once in a while. They are, absolutely, stunning.
Bass pro in springfield mo had a family of wood ducks living in an indoor stream. Also absolutely stunning. They are far more beautiful, IMO, than any of the breeds of pheasant.
