They are lovely wee ducks. I have never seen anything like them before. I must get some of my animal and bird footage together so you can see the sort of wildlife we have.
Thanks for the info on those beautiful ducks! I haven't seen them before, so it was a treat to see them! I probably wouldn't see them any other way than from you!! *hugs*
You seem to have lots of Duck varieties around you to film them..It is a pleasure to see them in your videos. You have given lot of chances to see these different duck types for us..That is very valuable and we also get a knowledge about them..
Thank you Menu. As I have said, a lot of them fly in and out, they dont stay and I wish they would, then I could get to admire them longer and share more videos of them.
Thank you Najib my friend. some remain here, but a lot just use it as a watering hole and feeding ground on their journey to their destination. I am glad to be able to see them and share them with you all.
What lovely little fellows! You are truly blessed to have such an amazing treasure trove of beauty that you can access! Such a rich variety of unique waterfowl! I am positively green with envy, enjoy it my friend!
That has happened to the farm behind my parents home on the hill. First the lower 100 acres was consumed by an interstate highway about 35 years ago then about 12 years ago, the remaining200 acres became a housing plan along with two other farms and a horse stabling operation. So much is being lost to urban sprawl :-(
Isnt it amazing how many different birds there are in such a small area. I knew there was a few, but when you start to put the individual vids together, i am like wow! ;)
I wonder is that a mated pair? The male being the white one? I kinda' thought that the brown one looked like a female mallard, but, I know little of duck species.
I am presuming so, as they are the only pair I have seen on the reserve, but I supsect, that there are more further a field, just I have not seen them yet. I hope so at least.
I am just making a playlist of the different birds etc.. that I come accross on the walks around the reserve and parks so people can see them on thier own for a minute or two.
Thank you. I do not know much about these birds, apart from that they come here every so often in the winter. Never seen them with young or a nesting area.
I néver seen them... Néver ! So this video is a great opportunity to watch these beautiful ducks... Thanks Phil !

I may not see them for a long time after they move on, which is usually around April. I wish they would stay. Hugs

It is thanks to the reserve we get to see them, if that was turned into houses and appartments, they would not be here and that would be sad.
