The gogol Bucephala clangula is a medium-sized sea duck with a large rounded head, short beak and contrasting black and white plumage. 

It is widespread in the forest zone of the northern hemisphere - both in Eurasia and in America. It nests in tree hollows along the banks of forest reservoirs.

It is a stocky duck with a large head and a rather short neck. Body length 40-50 cm, weight 750-1.250 g.

During mating games, the male emits a high-pitched screech "bi-biizzz, сюрприizzz", usually accompanied by a low dry rattle and similar to the squeak of a hare. The female responds with a squeaky "berrr-berrr".

Gogol's homeland is considered to be North America, from where the bird moved first to Asia, and then spread throughout the northern hemisphere. The breeding range covers an area of coniferous forests. In Eurasia, it is distributed east of Switzerland, the states of the former Yugoslavia and Scandinavia, reaching the islands of Sakhalin and Iturup in the east.
