Кафявоглавата потапница (Aythya ferina) е представител на семейство Патицови, разред Гъскоподобни, със средни размери и плътно набито телосложение. Тежи между 700 и 1100 g. Дължина на тялото 48–55 см, размах на крилете около 75 cm. Изразен полов диморфизъм. Има също, сезонен и възрастов диморфизъм. Мъжкият в брачно оперение е с трицветна окраска. През другите сезони наподобява женската, която е кафява с по-тъмни гърди и по-тъмна горна част на главата. При двата пола липсва крилно огледало. Младите приличат на женската. Плува и се гмурка добре. Излита тежко, лети бързо и шумно. Единствената потапница, която преди гмуркане подскача над водата.
