Beautiful video. No narration or music, just the sounds of nature. Well done & thank you.

Your comment is appreciated by this viewer. It appears we Americans just can't make a video without horrible intrusive music when the sounds of nature are so much more interesting!

[@lass-inangeles7564]

Its raining ducks!! Ha, ha, ha! So cute!!! This just proves that ducks can count, especially mother ducks! Absolutely adorable creatures, warms the heart so see them paddling frantically, close to Mum. I cannot imagine how 23 ducks + Mum can fit into this tiny box!

[@elushka29]

She checked if it was safe before she called her babies to fly down , so beautiful

Cut your sound

[@axch2983]

isn't music becoming annoying?

[@Methilde]

The way they don't hesitate to dive from so high and immediatly swim behind their mother, pure animals instinct.

[@anatolijku7242]

is there an antidarwinist anthropologist in your part of world? my native is russian

[@Methilde]

@@anatolijku7242 Not really, maybe a short part of population. You know France have a laic constitution and anti darwinism often come from religion, not saying that Darwin gives all the answers

[@meghan7547]

Actually, quite low, most wood duck boxes are much higher, and if in tree, way higher and often they jump to ground, not water.

[@meghan7547]

Most will lose their lives in less than 2 weeks.

[@marc-bs8bj]

If this is your box, thank you for your beautiful service to nature. Wood ducks are becoming increasingly rare. This is a beautiful video!

[@olderandwiser333]

That's quite the sizable brood she has there! What a good idea to place the nesting box right above the water, to save them the trek through the forest to get there! And how wonderful that you were able to get it all on video! Thank you!

[@kristieingram2039]

Those baby's are fast and according to their size and the height they had to jump from they are not afraid...... Awesome video

[@NikhilNiks]

They usually jump above from almost 50 meters heigh 😌

[@idahopotato6751]

Didn't know they are reared in a box. I have adults on my pond so now I have a box to build. Thanks for the video.

[@johnmoore-weiss8968]

I mean, naturally they use hollow dead trees and the like. But boxes are lovely for them.

[@LindaC616]

We had someone's when I was young. They took over a squirrel's nest in a tall tree that was on a terrace between our house and the lake. The squirrels never went back to that nest

[@roccco6349]

Awesome! These cute ducklings literally and bravely thought outside the box.

[@JanusHoW]

Hate to ruin the joke, but it's all instinct. When mama makes that soft, pulsing call, the babies immediately start trying to find her - and seeing that the only way out is the hole mama went through, that's where they go. Thankfully, the humans who build these nest boxes generally provide some wire fencing on the walls for the ducklings to grip.

When we build those houses we put a fine screen on the inside of the door up to the window. The little ones can climb up the screen.

[@kawythowy867]

Wow. That is pretty cool. I’d love to see that. That is the cutest thing ever. Wherever momma goes the little ducks follow relentlessly...love it. Mother nature is something special.

[@gailsandgathe2330]

Thanks for taking the time to photograph this and share your pictures, Scott. I look forward to seeing more of your pictures in the future.

[@redwoods7370]

I love the natural world so much. It keeps me on track. On another note, what mom could be in a cramped space with 23 babies who are ready to roll? She had to jump. And they had to jump. Worked out great for all of them.

[@kimshawley2434]

My favorite duck of all. Had lots of them on fall migration recently. I marvel at how instinctively animals nurture their young. Wish all humans would learn from such devoted parents

Amazing video. I had never seen wood duck chicks jump out of their nest into the water. Thanks so much for posting.

[@nooneanybodyknows1321]

Thanks for posting. Love the little tiny babies. The wood ducks bring their babies and they climb on a float tied up to the houseboat. I've even had them on the swim platform of the boat. She'll rest her babies there until I come out and feed them. So cute! I've made friend with the male wood duck too. Two are named and will come when I call their name. In the fall, the males are the most beautiful ducks I've ever seen. They look like velvet. And just like they know when hunting season begin they disappear. Do I have repeat ducks from the year before? I think so...but have no way of knowing for sure. It warms my heart that you care enough to share your duck love.

[@gerdasuurd7824]

I grew up with a lot of animals, wouldn’t really say a farm, but a lot of animals. Our ducks and geese who maybe hatch out 10-12 youngsters each, but 23??? Good mama duck!

[@mehersutaria9287]

......19,20,21..... and some more !!!! Did I get that right ? It's simply amazing. Mother 🦆 duck sure knows her numbers since she appears to be waiting for the ducklings to jump out of the box, wading back and forth in the water. Great video.💖💖

Wood ducks are my favorite duck besides the Mallard

[@jakenogard9667]

They just have instinct to swim right away. It took a month for me to learn how to swim. Man

[@johndoe7270]

That one at 7:12 that was catching up, kicked so hard it was picking up out the water. Reminds me of a muscle car popping up on two wheels during take off. I don't understand how people can hunt these beautiful creatures. Thanks a lot to responsible hunters and conservationists for helping to bring these marvelous animals back from the brink. It's a hard life for ducks and ducklings.

[@hello.Hello.HELLO_U.]

How ADORABLE!

[@randallfield6492]

I saw a mom and her (roughly) ten babies cross a street in our subdivision going from one pond to another the other day. So-o cute. I know for a fact that there are snappers in both ponds, so it's quite possible all of those babies won't make it. That's nature. Thanks for this video.

[@skp6613]

Lol the tiny lil splash from each one hitting the water😩😩😩 And wait, 23?! This is all one batch?

[@trianglepant]

sometimes more than one duck decide to lay eggs on the same nest. in this case, one decides to brood on it while others never return. Although i dont know how they decide and how they communicate..

[@adamlyon7884]

Too many nest boxes too close together. If 1 hen sees another box where another hen is sitting she'll lay eggs in it also

[@carolsummers2185]

Sweetest Video,I had a pair of Mallords ànd built them a house,13 ducklings hatched!Mother and me babied them with a swimming pool and when they were grown,we took them to a private lake! Boy! They sailed across the lake in Splendor.

[@darrenbrann4935]

More than likely other birds laid eggs in that box. Happens all the time. One hen is tasked with incubating them all, or the nest will be abandoned because she can't incubate them all.
