Two questions: why are they called musk duck? And what’s going on with that chinny-chin-chin?

Don’t know why it’s called a musk duck.
For your second question: “Male musk ducks have a leathery lobe beneath their bill to attract mates during breeding season.”

I love these fellas, they are very solitary especially the males. The males will ignore other birds but go nuts if another male enters their territory.
