Photo Credit: joekaczmarek A beautiful mandarin duck that drew photographers and onlookers to Philly's Pennypack Park has died:

An employee at the Pennypack Environmental Center told NBC10 a visitor at the park discovered the duck unresponsive. That visitor then reached out to the Center who confirmed the duck’s death.

Officials have not revealed a cause of death but the employee told NBC10 it was not due to the recent frigid temperatures. The duck was first spotted by onlookers at Pennypack Park in November. Mandarin ducks are native to East Asia though people in the U.S. sometimes keep them as pets.
