Mandarin Ducks - where can they be found???

There is no question that the mandarin duck competes with the wood duck as an image many photographers would love to capture.

I have a great many images of the wood duck.

Where does one find the mandarin duck??? Most zoos don't have them. Private duck collectors may. Some duck breeders do. Since I don't collect ducks and I don't know any duck breeders. I've called the local zoo and they don't know any more then I do.

I live in CLeveland, Ohio and would drive a reasonable distance to get an image.

Any clues out there??

I did a quick Google search and found the Philadelphia Zoo has them.

Thanks for the lead.

My son lives in the DC area and I could hit Philadelphia on the way / out of the way!!

I didn't see that when I did the search but, I contacted a couple of the breeders.
