Wood Duck duckling resting on a log

in birds •  7 years ago 

Baby Wood Ducks are the cutest things! This little duck was sitting on a log with her siblings and mother. After a good deal of swimming and feasting on little bugs, she took a break to do some preening and get a little nap in :)

This past summer was the first year that I really paid attention to all the ducklings in Stanley Park. I'd seen them before, but never really stopped to have a closer look. With a video camera, it was the perfect excuse to slow down and pay my undivided attention to these beautiful little creations. Watching them grow up slowly but surely was a real treat! I really like the little squeaky noise they make while swimming around and feeding on bugs :)



This video was shot at Ceperley Meadow in Stanley Park, located in the city of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

Thanks for watching!

Yes, so cute! And to see what the mother ducks go through trying to keep their ducklings safe, it's such a beautiful thing :) I have a newfound respect for the lowly duck ;)
