    Its raining ducks!! Ha, ha, ha! So cute!!! This just proves that ducks can count, especially mother ducks! Absolutely adorable creatures, warms the heart so see them paddling frantically, close to Mum. I cannot imagine how 23 ducks + Mum can fit into this tiny box!

    • @JanusHoW
      @JanusHoW 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hate to ruin the joke, but it's all instinct. When mama makes that soft, pulsing call, the babies immediately start trying to find her - and seeing that the only way out is the hole mama went through, that's where they go. Thankfully, the humans who build these nest boxes generally provide some wire fencing on the walls for the ducklings to grip.

I don't understand how people can hunt these beautiful creatures. Thanks a lot to responsible hunters and conservationists for helping to bring these marvelous animals back from the brink. It's a hard life for ducks and ducklings.

    Thanks for posting. Love the little tiny babies. The wood ducks bring their babies and they climb on a float tied up to the houseboat. I've even had them on the swim platform of the boat. She'll rest her babies there until I come out and feed them. So cute! I've made friend with the male wood duck too. Two are named and will come when I call their name. In the fall, the males are the most beautiful ducks I've ever seen. They look like velvet. And just like they know when hunting season begin they disappear. Do I have repeat ducks from the year before? I think so...but have no way of knowing for sure. It warms my heart that you care enough to share your duck love.
