Habitat - In summer, this long-tailed duck breeds in the taiga and tundra near shallow lakes and ponds as well as along northern coasts and inlets. In winter, it frequents the more open and deeper coastal waters of straits, bays, and inlets. Sometimes large flocks pass the winter on open freshwater lakes and rivers.
