No, they are not strict herbivores. About 80% of their diet consists of plant matter (leaves, flowers, seeds, etc), but 20% comes from animal/insect protein (they love small fish, slugs, insect larvae, and will snatch butterflies, bees, flies right out of the air.)

Is duck an herbivore?

Seaducks, also known as Merginae, are mostly marine-based birds although some species depend on rivers for their habitat. Seaducks mostly eat fish although some of these birds consume molluscs or crustaceans from the sea floor. Either way, the diet of these birds is not plant based, and therefore, sea ducks are not herbivores.
