Harlequin Duck facts: The geographic range of the harlequin duck extends from Alaska and the Yukon Territory down through British Columbia and into states such as Washington, Oregon, Wyoming and Idaho in the West. The duck lives in the East from Baffin Island in Canada southwards to places such as Labrador and Maine. The eastern ducks will often spend the winters in the waters off Long Island and many stay in the Penobscot and Jericho Bays along the Maine coast. The harlequin duck leaves its coastal home to breed in forest streams and rivers. ~ eHow.com
