does a bald duck sink?

Ducks have hollow bones which helps them float, but if they had no waterproof feathers they would probably not be able to stabilize themselves, and would probably drown. Also the feathers insulate them from the cold, so if the water was too cold they would get sick or die from hypothermia.
 
Even if they could float, they wouldnt be able to fly and would die soon there after. Probably the reason you never seen one ... Im sure they got one in the zoo somewhere ;)
 
I gotta razor,All we need is a duck now.

HAHAHA Wow I can't believe someone referenced a KFC sandwhich...gotta love tnt...I think a bald duck could swim just fine in water. I know the feathers help keep em warm and dry but I don't know if they act as little flotation assistants.
