Best Answer

Most waterfowl fly at speeds of 40 to 60 mph, with many species averaging roughly 50 mph. A common flying speed of ducks and geese is between 40 and 50 miles per hour. Geese normally fly at about the same speed as ducks. Which is faster when trying to escape danger? Depends on the individual bird.

I have heard of a merganser setting the speed record while being chased by an airplane. It was clocked doing 100 m.p.h. Shattering the previous record set by a canvasback going 72 m.p.h.
