== Behavior == Cinnamon Teal ducks are dabbling ducks which mean they take most of their food at or near the surface by rapidly opening and closing the bill to take seeds, zooplankton, and insects. They can also feed like Northern Shovelers following each other in tight groups as they slowly feed across on area. Many of them eat plants, seeds an shoots of marsh grasses. A small portion of their diet is snails, beetles, dragonflies, water fleas, and many types of flies. They mainly eat plants; their diet may also include [[mollusc]]s and aquatic [[insect]]s.<ref>{{cite book |author1=Alexander Campbell Martin |author2=Herbert Spencer Zim |author3=Arnold L.
