- These babies were hatched in an incubator at The Toucan Rescue Ranch in Costa Rica, www.toucanrescueranch.com , they are meeting their older sibling and parents for the first time and everyone is very excited! For more about our rescue efforts visit www.toucanrescueranch.com
I live in Houston Texas and there were a couple of the black-bellied whistling ducks in my front yard. It was awesome! They were so beautiful and I've never seen them before. I was trying to describe what they sound like to my sister and she's like they don't quack?😅 Not these! So I forwarded your video to her. Thank you!
Those little ducklings are so adorable!
Just got a visit from a pair of black bellied whistlers after a thunderstorm. I have 2 fresh water ponds adjacent to a marsh that is at the end of a creek. They seem tame and unafraid of dogs, other birds or humans. They leave to roost at sunset and return to spend the day at sunrise. I am in the ACE water basin, just south of Charleston near Edisto Beach, SC
Beautiful coloration. I haven't heard their call yet.
Those are the cutest baby ostriches I have ever seen.
I agree
Very exciting, they are great little ducks!
What a lovely video !!!
Thank you!
Just beautiful. 😍
Thank you! 😊
@@toucanrescueranch never seen or heard one but they are just beautiful little things. I'm a carer for wild and tame birds so I've had many many ducks, most wild, they breed in my yard, 3 acres, mostly wetlands. I just love them. 😊
Very beautiful ducks, what a cute video!
They might actually be endangered, Mitchell
What do they eat? May I buy it at a pet store?
I have a family of these in a marsh behind my house in Florida.
@Bacopa68 They actually do have a population in Florida. They are mostly confined to the central region, though there are populations in South Georgia and South Carolina as well. They are increasing in number and are prone to vagrate. One spent an entire fall season until early Dec. 2010 at a lake here in Omaha, NE.
@Bacopa68 we enjoy the ducks they are part of the family, not really a rescue duck, but having said that are you sure the states are full of Black bellied whistling ducks?
SON MUY SIMPATICOS......
@slothmom The coastal parts of Texas and Louisiana are at least. I went and did a little research and found out that they don't go much much east of the Atchafalaya River in Louisiana. I figured they must go all the way to Florida. They don't
Even so. It's a very common bird in the Houston area. Anything larger than a pond will have tons of them. I love it when they fly at dusk and whistle to assemble the flock at roosting time.
They do now!
I saw them b4
last fall after a huge wind storm several [about 1 dozen]got blown off course and ended up in Ohio . I saw the pictures ,,one stayed as late as Feburary,in the Chillicothe area
You can feed them puder feed from a feed store. If you are rescuing baby chicks or huevo.

@Bacopa68 wow, thanks for doing the research, very interesting, love these little guys!

I appreciate your work, but why bother rescuing this species? Every park and golf course on the US Gulf Coast is full of them
