In China, the Mandarin duck is the symbol of love and loyalty coz they're quite often appear in pairs. The reference can be found in an ancient poem one thousand years ago, stating 'I'd love to be a mandarin duck that never has the urge to envy (the power/life of) the gods.' So they're love birds

That bird is a symbol of love in Chinese culture. They often show up as a couple in Chinese paintings and embroideries. Especially people like to put them on presents for newly weds.
Fun fact! Only the males of the species are coloured like that so when they embroider yuan yang couples on wedding gifts, they're almost always depicting male-only couples 🦆🦆
In China there are a lot of mandarin ducks, but I have never seen they bully other ducks. I think the duck is in irritating state because he can't find a female mate. In Chinese old tradition, guests of a wedding always give bride and groom gifts with mandarin ducks patterns on them because mandarin ducks always appear before people in pairs, one male and one female. So the ancient Chinese thought mandarin ducks were the symbol of fidelity in marriage. It was big mistake though. Modern zoological research shows they do always appear in pairs, but they also frequently exchange spouses. The ancient Chinese thought they were conservatives, not knowing they exactly were super liberals. 😜
In Korea, Mandarin Duck is called mandarin duck in Korea. However, this mandarin duck was called the couple's gold thread during a traditional Korean wedding.
In Chinese the bird’s name is called “Yin Yeung” it usually travel in a pair (male and female) it’s a symbol of happy couple. It’s the most common wedding embroidery decoration in Chinese custom.
Most of us may not be able to relate to bird watching, I certainly couldn’t, but sitting outside watching the ducks is surprisingly entertaining. They have their own drama, hostilities, peace making, requirements, oddities etc. I’m hooked. My neighbors watch while I’m at work so we are all informed.
The odd videos that show up randomly on my feed...but I have had a very bad day and I needed to see this lovely little duck and the crowd of admirers he has drawn. I hope he is still there safely.
Mandarin duck is a symbol for love in China. We call them yuan yang 鸳鸯.. They always be two together (male and female) in the water, if one dies, the other will not survive a long longer. Traditionally Chinese girl would like embroidered two mandarin ducks (male and female together) on their handkerchiefs and sent it to the young man she loved.
Ingredients: Duck -- 1 whole, about 4 to 5 pounds Chinese five spice powder -- 1 tablespoon Sugar -- 2 teaspoons Salt -- 2 teaspoons Fresh ginger -- 5 big slices Garlic -- 4 cloves Green onion -- 4 stalks Mandarin orange peels -- peel from 1 orange, cut in big strips Rice vinegar -- 1/4 cup Honey -- 1/2 cup Soy sauce -- 1/2 cup Mandarin orange peels Trim the excess fat from the duck in order to produce a crispy skin. Rinse the duck, pat dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine the Chinese five-spice powder, salt and sugar. Rub the spice mixture all over the duck, both inside and out. Stuff the duck cavity with ginger, garlic, green onions, and mandarin orange peels. Fold the wing tips back under the duck and tie the legs together with kitchen string. Poke the duck breast a few times, piercing the skin. Place a roasting pan on the stovetop, fill it with with 2-inches of water, turn the heat to medium. Set a V-rack inside the pan and lay the duck on the rack, breast-side up. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Steam the duck for 45 minutes to melt away some of the fat and shrink the skin, checking the water level periodically. In a small saucepan combine the vinegar, honey, and soy sauce over low heat. Bring to a boil and simmer and stir for 15 minutes until sauce thickens. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Take the foil off the duck, remove the rack with the duck, and pour out the water and all the fat that has rendered out. Then put the rack with the duck back inside the roasting pan. Baste the duck with the vinegar mixture, until all the skin is completely coated in the glaze. Put the whole thing in the oven. Roast the duck for 1/2-1 hour, depending on how big your bird is, basting periodically with any remaining glaze. The ideal color is deep mahogany. Cover the breast with some foil if it gets too dark. When your bird is ready, put it under the broiler briefly to make the skin more crisp
I had no idea this Mandarin Duck went viral, walked past the reservoir in Central Park once about two years ago and was like tf? What kinda duck is that? Funny thing is that I’d almost completely forgotten about it until the other day when I brought it up in conversation and now TH-cam’s recommending me a video about it?... 🤔🤔🤔
They can just check the ring on his foot, that should give them some clues about the owner. Its so sweet to see so many "regular" people get so interested in animals, wonder if anyone got inspired and became a birdwatcher 🐦
We have some in our zoological gardens. And they can keep v still while sunning themselves. First time i saw them i was mesmerised. I thought the stationary one was a prop or stone ornament. Then it moved! What magnificent colours! .
I lived in a tiny town in Germany when I was a kid. In the city-pond we always had two of these beauties swimming around. Didn't know they were so rare back then.
Before I checked when this video was posted I was genuinely confused on the crowd of people not wearing masks to look at the duck lol, can't believe this was 2 years ago 😂

Someone give him a girlfriend so he feels less lonely!
Agree
No. We can't let it reproduce, it's a foreign and potentially invasive species.
Yeah me too
👍 Whoever brought it there should really brought 2
As a bird lover I think that's a bad idea because it's not part of that ecosystem :(
Aha, a Yuan yang. In Chinese culture, Mandarin duck stands for lifelong couples. You can see many traditional paintings&poems&songs about it.
Does consuming one also give you life long relationships? Is it a delicacy?
@@8BitGamer4life I think it is close on being endanger. So probably illegal to hunts them
@@8BitGamer4life in ancient times maybe. But now it's hard to get, the population is relatively small
@@8BitGamer4life regular duck may be but I've personally never heard of anyone eating yuan yang before. I'm Chinese btw

It's so sweet how it's completely oblivious to all the attention it's receiving
" We genuinely haven't looked at our phones it's so beautiful".

Good thing that duck came along if only for that reason.

“Don’t hate me because I am beautiful...”
