Abstract
On 25th August 2025, a White-faced Whistling Duck Dendrocygna viduata was observed in the Kroom Alkhayl area (32°04'17.2"N 23°50'04.7"E), approximately 12 km west of Tobruk City, eastern Libya. This constitutes the second national record of the species in Libya, following the first observation in 2022 at Al-Saket sewage treatment lagoon, Misrata in Tripolitania (Elsowayeb & Etayeb, 2022). This new record also represents the first for eastern Libya, indicating a probable eastward extension of the species’ occurrence within the country. KEYWORDS: Dendrocygna viduata, White-faced Whistling Duck, Tobruk, Cyrenaica; Libya.
