Thanks for this. There seems to be a lot of conflicting information about ducks. I was under the impression that they had poor night vision but then I found several pages saying that their night vision was excellent.

Very cool! I have 8 ducks and I always have wondered how the see the world. They are easy to pick up and put to bed at night, when the sun sets and it gets dark, they come to the back porch. I reckon they feel safe with the light on. Bless em. Silly boogers.

it seems stupid to me to make waterfoul hunters use steel shot but still continue to use plastic wadding in the shells instead of cardboard disks....plastic contamination in water is a serious issue...waterfowl eat the bits of plastic and clog up and die it happens a lot..also fish eat it and it winds up inside bald eagles and kills them...its a chain of plastic death

You can tell by their wings too... There's a white line over the blue and if the white line stops where the blue stops it's a male. And if the white line is longer than the blue, it's a female

G and H would never have found themselves in such a state had they redesigned their moulds to look like ducks instead of cartoon characters. People were saying this twenty years ago and had they done it, they would have dominated the market.

Hey delta, are these being used in areas with snakes and raccoons? My grandfather used to build birdhouses back in the day. He had a problem with predators climbing the pole to get at the eggs or baby birds. By putting a large inverted (upside down) bowl halfway up the pole, he was able to prevent many of the predators from climbing. It’s fairly low cost as it can be done with sheet tin or even plastic. I think it’s now called a “conical predator guard.”

Wildlife agencies should encourage trapping through education and make trapping popular again. Also, creating a demand for fur to improve fur prices and utilization of the resource.

Delta Waterfowl's science-based MDC recognizes the importance of enhancing the nesting success and brood survival rates that are directly linked to utilizing hen houses and mesopredator management where appropriate and practical. The Oregon Trappers Association applauds these science-based efforts to bolster the North American Continents waterfowl population by the Duck Hunter's Organization.

Bravo Dr. Rohwer! Glad we have you to advocate for waterfowl in the efforts of increasing nesting productivity. Dr. Rohwer, if you may happen to read this, I am installing Wood Duck boxes in a few creeks in Southern Delaware / Maryland . Is it worthwhile installing Hen Houses as well or is it a waste of time and money for my flyway. My goal is to install 10 this off season and if the Hen Houses work for nesting in my region, I will install 10 of those as well. Thanks for your time.🦆

Really interesting video, but different than I expected. I thought it would compare goose calls to swan calls. (That was my search.) So in that regard, it wasn't what I was looking for. Instead, though, I got a very interesting anatomy demonstration, showing why they sound very different from one another. Recommendation: Add a trigger warning for people who might be repulsed by animal dissection. It doesn't bother me, but it reminded me of when a few students had to be dismissed from 10th-grade biology because they became sick just from the idea of directing frogs and piglets. DISSECTION is informative and interesting for a curious mind, and is relevant to bird calls, but potentially not as appreciated by the "faint of heart."
