The wandering whistling duck inhabits tropical and subtropical Australia, the Philippines, Borneo, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Timor-Leste and the Pacific Islands. Formerly called a tree duck, it takes its name from its loud whistling calls and the whistling noise its wings make in flight (Wikipedia, general species account).
