Please make a video about shrikes.
Please make a video about white-faced whistling ducks
With Danielle being Canadian, I'm surprised you have never done Loons. That would be a good vidao, they have so many interesting things for birds. Being unable to walk on land, solid bones, mating for life. I'm Loony for Loons.
Hey can youn please make a video about 'virgin birth in animals' and also don't forget to include the case of the CALFORNIAN CONDORES....
also mention it's evolutionary aspects.
PLEASE ❤️❤️❤️
I always thought that the Mandarin duck was an absolutely colorful bird. The next Duck that I thought had beautiful colors and might be a close runner-up is the wood duck
Mandarin and Goth: A love story.
Release date when?
@McMari Actually, I looked it up its releasing on February 31, 2023

How about “drake and goth” lmaooo
Nuh, Eurasian Coots are true goths. Look them up😉
Awww, the little females aren't homely, I think they're pretty. They're just more subtle and understated. As they should be in order to brood eggs and try not to stand out to predators.
Literally what homely means
I agree with you, they are so pretty, they remind me of little fawns. That makes sense about the females not standing out to predators, seems like a fact I should've realized before about sexual dimorphism.
@@maxpulido4268 True, the actual definition of homely is plain or less than attractive, but I've always associated the word with negative connotations... learn sumthin' new everyday.
Agreed. The brown and white patterns are still pretty.
"Homely" does just mean subtle and understated in the U.K., but apparently has a more negative connotation in the U.S.
I love how flamboyant male birds are!! They’re all beautiful
Stay fresh kings
They should be called K-pop Duck.
Or Ducks before Flowers.
@@radityapoerwanto7018 none.
@@radityapoerwanto7018 Considering ducks are sexual predators, no.
did you know that a duck cant read a youtube comment
@@Zarmdthecoolest my mom is androgynous
Do the Eclectus parrot! The sexual dimorphism is reversed, males are plain green while females are bright red and blue.
It was a mystery why this was so but scientist observations soon had it solved!
please elaborate more
@@J0.n. it's speculated that the females had a reddish color to hide well in tree hollows during mating season (since males try to find any females, even the ones who've mated) while the male has green plumage for camouflage purposes
Edit: That's just what I've read tho, if there's more to add, please do so
@@shreb6182 on that’s interesting thanks for the information
DEFINITELY THE ECLECTUS
Same thing with the shorebird species called the Phalaropes. The females fight for territory, and the males do the brooding of the eggs.
Fun Chinese fact: the Chinese term for mandarin ducks is also used to refer to human couples (married or not) a bit like how in english you might call a couple "lovebirds".
Chinese also uses mandarin ducks to describe loving romantic relationships, especially with the idiom/saying: 只羡鸳鸯不羡仙，meaning one would rather envy the ducks love and dedication to one other, instead of being gods and deities above.
Lovebirds are actually birds look it up :D
Fun Chinese Fact, indeed!
@@Miss.mellohi no shit sherlocks 😂
@@Miss.mellohinobody said they weren’t birds
A Goth gf. If only we all could be so lucky as the male mandarin duck...
So very true.
Ah yes the elusive goth girlfriend... and here I am with out boyfriend or girlfriend... being goth... I am saddened beyond believe
My Mandarin male has a white female. He is slso very lucky about that
I volunteer as a tribute!
Nah selling their organs is better. Oh and these birds are beautiful
A pretty boy and his goth gf, truly a match made in heaven
The eccentric theater kid and the introverted goth art kid: tale as old as time.
that duck trying to attract a goth gf is literally me
Have you done the burp?
Better dress up flamboyantly
i second this so hard
Nah, you have no fashion and colors.
Literally*
The Wood Duck is like the less orange version of the Mandarin Duck. They are like the shiny version.
Nobody asked about the wood duck
I didn't asked mate
@@MB-sj2yu @Edward Kenway Oh but you did, don't lie.
@@--Paws-- stop tryna justify your comb comment with a edited comment
@@MB-sj2yu I added the other commenter's name, my claim still stands, you both asked
I love how the survival tactic of Mandarin Ducklings is literally just to be fluffy
The females are not all grey though they have one band of deep blue feathers on their wings. I fins it classy, just enough colors not too over the top
Understated couture.
goths dont really wear just black so,,, realism?
@@milkmancatcher1996 exactly
Like when a pale woman in full black has dark blue gloves. 💙
wood duck crying in the corner 😂😂
"Whatever the Lady says goes", does not track with what I've heard about ducks..... seriously, they can be monsters....
Yes made a mistake of watching a TH-cam video of a bunch of them drowning a female duck…
Yep, many animals that most people think are innocent tend to be quite vicious in reality.
@@peggedyourdad9560 exactly. For example, ferrets. When it comes to mating, the male won't be so gentle with the female, as they will drag her by the neck, and can draw blood and leave wounds.
@@MinixMini2 That mating practice is surprisingly common in the animal kingdom, I’ve heard that blue-tongued skinks also mate like that.
@@MinixMini2 It stimulates the female from what I read
I died laughing when i saw the title XD bravo
You got a heart

In Korea, when a couple marry, traditionally they're given a couple of hand carved wooden mandarin ducks because it symbolized everlasting love.
Chinese culture
yuanyang 鸳鸯
0:24 so every male mandarin duck has a mullet.
😂 you're ruining their Majesty! Lol
Male duck: *burps*
Female ducks: Omg mother i want to marry him 🔥
I think the coloration of the females is actually quite beautiful. Just a hint of color peeking from her wing feathers.
But that part with the voiceover when the male was doing his display. If you're watching this without headphones and the volume turned a bit too loud, you might get some looks wondering what you're watching 🤣
I love how critters are legit screaming behind her while she’s trying to inform us
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: ROAD RUNNERS! DO ROAD RUNNERS!
_Meep meep_
the female ducks are so cute! Like they're dressed in a more "classic" beautiful brown pattern
Reminds me of what my grandma wears😭
True❤
I love the decision to record part of the voiceover in the room with the screaming birds. Like… you didn’t have to do that and it’s hilarious that you did
Agreed.
A bold choice that pays off with laughs & Likes! 😂
I love how the male ducks look so pretty with those colors, and how the little ducklings jump down the trees to follow mom 🥰
Around 6:58, you say their plumage protects their fall. Their tiny size plays a more important role; "the larger you are, the harder you fall" applies here.
Ah yes, a goth gf and a golden retriever bf.
Thank you for showcasing my favorite duck! I'm an Ornithology student and I plan to raise these lovelies on my future homestead. 🥰
🐎🐖🐂🐐🐓🦃🦆
Help extinction I guess then.
amazing isn't it that these beautiful creatures got made by a random explosion in the middle of space 14bn years ago, without a single thought about design or logic, just random atoms flying around without direction or purpose that came out of nowhere and they just happened to create all intelligent life on this planet?! Wow!
The Mandarin Duck are called 鸳鸯 (Yuan Yang) they can also be used to describe a couple love each other very much.
That’s the cutest thing ever, haha!
In korea wooden dolls of them are given at marriage
@@nineten-eu4ig that's so sweet
I'd lose my mind if you guys would do an episode on Albatrosses for "World of Birds", if that is feasible! Endangered, beautiful and one of the most fascinating in my eyes.
That would be cool to see, I don't know much about albatrosses, but I'm gonna look them up now that I'm thinking of them.
Love these guys! Can you do an episode on the thylacine/more prehistoric animals?
👀 see you soon

Man, mandarin ducks look really fun to paint.
Curse you, now I want to paint a Mandarin Duck.👍
Mandarin ducks remind me of the American wood duck.
Ha ha! I wrote this comment before I reached the end of the video, so I was pleased to see wood ducks get a mention.
My female mandarin duck is white like snow. In autumn like now, when the male turns into brown, he is the less pretty one of my two lovely ducks!
Are the female ducks also into My Chemical Romance?
Paramore
@@michaelscottoriginal : V I I I Λ's response to Mr. Finch also applies to you! But I did meet Hayley Williams once briefly in 2019, and I got to compliment her on her vocal range. I hope I was right, since my musical knowledge is only rudimentary.

Ducks are such a wonderful, harmless bird. I’ve always had the highest admiration for these awesome birds.
I like how flamboyant most males in the animal kingdom are djbwnsnsbs ☠️ Like in humans if a guy if flamboyant they straight up call him gay (being gay isn't a bad thing lol I'm bisexual)
I wish we could be like other animals... Carefree and FLAMBOYANT
Great vid guys.
A video on cranes would be cool, especially the Wooping Crane and the story of its conservation (but any crane video would be great)
I live near Necedah National Crane Foundation center. Highly recommend visiting if you’re ever in the area. You get to see them phasing out the puppets and switching to a set of long time mates. It’s pretty incredible
She was a goth he did ballet 😂
I notice they stand on one leg hahahaha thats amazing
Please do the humble seagull. They are way overlooked and are truly beautiful birds. I know it might not be too popular, I find these birds fascinating and lovely. Thank you for all of the awesome videos so far.
The herring gull, bane of sanitation.
They fly directly over people's heads and are prone to defecating mid-flight. They make tons of loud noise and love to pick up trash and drop it elsewhere (I even saw one pick up a needled syringe and drop it from the sky and into someone's yard). A lot of garbage is removed from the landfill and spread around the forest because of these disgusting creatures.
While I can’t say I share the same kind of fascination, I would also like to see a video on seagulls. They’re pretty screwed up, someone should really check on them…
Casual Geographic has already done bird episodes and I can say with confidence that seagulls are one of the most cruel animals ever. Only someone with a total lack of knowledge of their lifestyle can call them "lovely".
@@brendanblab7508 A little hypocritical to call them disgusting for intruding in human landfills lol. Maybe humans should have better waste management?
@@sendmorerum8241 Sorry they can't order mass slaughtered veal like the lovely humans and have to get their food themselves.
I love Bird Kingdom, that place was a surprisingly fascinating experience for me! And now here I am watching bird videos that happen to feature the very “Kingdom” that introduced me.
I remember when a male Mandarin ducks came to Central Park! OMG! He was one of the most beautiful birds I've ever seen! :D
Fun fact birds are actually more colorful than what we can see, both males and females. They have a broader light spectrum than we do and can see more colors. So the way female birds look aren't as dull as we think, and the males are even more flamboyant.
So cute I seen one of these in my backyard
Me, as well. Though it was a barbecue and I would have been more impressed by a living specimen.
Super extravagant feathers!
I'm glad you mentioned the relation to the Wood Duck. I lived near the Reifel Bird Refuge when I was a kid and they were a rare sighting. I always wondered about hybrids since there've been Mandarin Ducks(or at least Trevor) in Vancouver since 2018.
Mandarin ducks are one of my favorite ducks because of how cute their quacks are. They sound exactly like a rubber ducky! 💕
I love the females!!!I like how stone-like the colors are it reminds me of a snow leopard and make it even more like 1 by all the white dots on its body/torso❤.and dont get me started on that flashy eyeliner :3
where i live we have families of these ducks along the stream. i love just sitting on the bench. lighting a doob and just watching them for hours
“And you’re watching World of…KWAAAAAK!” 😂
The red-footed falcon would be cool! The females are a lovely rusty orange-and-grey color, and the males are a rather pretty slate blue.
Loving this series! Aranya could you cover Reddish egrets or Snowy plovers?
Snowy plovers are my favorite!!
Great video and content!!! Never knew the chicks of these stunning 🦆 get out of the nest so FAST!!
What an interesting review of this interesting species! You got some amazing footage of the Mandarin Ducks, and I learned a lot about them as well. Thanks for making this!
THANKS STEVE!!!
I love how informative you guys make your videos, keep up the great work 👍
Love u guys for such wonderful content free of charge. God bless all of you
That bird has got mad drip
1:43 that's one chonky forest cat. Oh wait, is that a manul?
This was such a great video!!
I can barely walk to the parking lot to my car 1 hour after waking up. These ducklings have me beat.
An episode on eiders would be cool, their adaptations to their habitat and environmental extremes might be interesting to run through
When glam rock meets gothic rock.
In Sweden where I live Mandarin ducks are pretty rare, but I have seen them in central Stockholm. The cool thing is one Mandarin drake is always surronded by Mallard drakes. You can feel that the Mallards are kinda jealous of the Mandarins, and will treat the Mandarin as their leader.
Warblers would be awesome to do a video on! Many are amazing migratory as and are an incredibly diverse group. Also, the interaction between Rufous hummingbirds and red-breasted sapsuckers would be really cool! The hummingbird relies on the sap holes of the sapsucker in order to migrate all the way north to Alaska in the spring and establish territory!
Mandarin ducks are quite common in areas like the Forest of Dean
hahaha not the photoshoot! yall got me with that one
Loved the video. Very well done.
Thank you, Aditi! Glad you enjoyed
One is scene and the other is goth 🖤
Great video, very interesting!!
I remember seeing them at the Niagara aviary. They are so small compared to the mallards.
Such a strapping young lad
I saw them in the park
This series is great! Birds aren't my thing but it still gets me interested.
I saw this duck today in richmond park London. It was a male and it posed for my video. Brilliant little thing. I could identify it due to your video. Thanks for the great work!
Imagine sexual dimorphism in dinosaurs that can't be inferred from fossils. These ducks would be so bland if discovered from fossils.
I've been crazy about King fishers since I watched your video.
They are cute,i always stop to see them in the zoo.African lovebirds are very colourful too.
I have been binge watching your channel for the past few days. Fantastic videos. Can you please do a video on the Flamingo? My neice would love it.
Much better line delivery this week.
Look at him shaking his feathers like Farrah Fawcett. lol!
I always wondered: If in nature sexual dimorphism *usually* is about males being fancier than females... wouldn't that mean that in humans, males should also be fancier? However, what we find is that females are regarded as the ones having to do the fancy stuff.
Usually doesn’t mean all the time. And who says the males aren’t fancier? I think because we have sentience and today’s morals and stuff affect on what we view as fancier and stuff. Like if we go on just base natural biology and stuff we will be seen as a bigot by a lot of people. I literally know a couple people irl who think it’s close minded of me to mention natural biology. So I don’t know.
Nobody stops you from being fancy bru
Humans are also not very polygamous
Sexual dimorphism isn’t universal and it’s not always for the intention of attracting a mate
OMG THE MALES ARE SO CUTE AND FLUFFY AAAAAAA--
3:21 They've ensured their reproDUCKtive success alright.
Flamboyant boyfriend and goth girlfriend. Quite the combo!
A penguin, a bunch of pigeons, and some mandarin ducks hanging out with a Swiss(?) dude brought me here.
Snowy owls!!! Or great horned! Great series 💙
Please make a video about Jacanas, thank you!
sheeeeeeeeeeshhhhhhh them feathers dont lie
No one:
Male Mandarin ducks: we have majestic Hair. **
(This is Mike's daughter btw)
Bird up!
Ducks are just "platypus-billed birds"
This was the best possible title for the subject matter.
I just came here to say...
QUACK!
The one from New York Central Park is the most beautiful.
Actually female counterpart of most animals and birds are understated than males.
4:09 me and the boys dropping ultraviolet shits
You had me at 🦆🥰
Ye I've always wondered why in every single other species it's the male who peacocks but in humans it's women who do
"Burping noise"
*screams of the damned in the background*
Sounds about right
An episode on the Hoatzin Bird would be awesome! Please!
