(mini Doc) Australian Wood Ducks - from ducklings to adulthood

[@chrispoule7747]

I currently have two pairs of the Australian wood ducks that visit the creek and surrounding grass on my property. I wonder if I'll see chicks with them this Spring. They are lovely to watch ❤

Place a nesting box in a tree and you will have duck families. Ensure that the hole is the correct size for wood ducks and a mesh grid of specific specification so the ducklings can climb up to the exit.

Just amazed at this beautiful footage. We have the Wood ducks on our ponds but we rarely see the juveniles. Fantastic documetary👍

[@BadgerBotherer1]

Nice film. Enjoyed watching the journey from birth to adulthood.

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

Great video, I watched all 9.56!

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

haha, thanks Birdfun! I hope I didn't bore you to much

[@dougthespud]

Plenty of these lovely feathered creatures where I live so it was very interesting to learn from this video about them after they're born.

[@naturediary7651]

Great mini doc. Fantastic footage and a very clear, precise narrative. Well done.

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

Thanks very much for your feedback! I'm glad it was ok :)

[@naturediary7651]

You're welcome. Have a nice weekend.

[@junelw]

This is so professionally done. I'm glad all the ducklings survived.

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

Thanks Oli, I am too.

[@Jimmyjimson2017]

I love ducks and this is why they’re so adorable I want to cry

[@wildsuburbiauk152]

Great film and narration, strangely enough I saw some of these in captivity earlier in the week. Many thanks.

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

Thanks Wild Suburbia, well that is quite a coincidence!

[@wbutlerfilms]

Wow, what a Documentary story. I love the sneaky music in the background.

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

Thanks, it was fun trying to get the right sound track for it and I think it turned out quite well!

[@andresgarcia7757]

Thanks for the mini documentary, those are some beautiful birds!

[@lm2017]

Wonderful video! I love this style!

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

Thanks BirdNerd! :D

[@frienderhtin2921]

The video was great, the editing, the style though I would recommend if you do another one of these to pace the voice so it's more consistent and there aren't large patches of voicelessness but besides that it was really good and I would like to see more of these in the future

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

Thanks for your honest feed back Ethan, I purposefully meant to leave gaps without commentary as I still like to have parts where you can sit and watch without me constantly talking throughout it which I thought might spoil it. But I would definitely shorten the length of the segments without commentary as I kind of felt the same way having them a bit too long in some parts. I'll remember that for next time! ;)

[@si_vis_amari_ama]

I liked it. Nice to watch the ducks and hear the birdsong. Less is often best.

[@heronboy]

Nice documentary! it's very professional and it reminded me of watching the nature documentaries on TV! The American wood ducks are so different from these! but all in all they are both beautiful and that's what really matters:)

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

Thanks Heron boy, I'm glad it looks professional to you - I wasn't to sure how I felt about the video at the time. Your American wood ducks are certainly a lot more pretty then our wood ducks. But as you say they're both equally beautiful! :)

[@JenniferMoralesFelineFilms]

The video was incredible. They are so precious. I subscribed to your lovely channel :)

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

Thank you! They're very precious and undoubtedly cute :)

[@kayk7493]

Thank you so much for this! 2 tiny wood duck ducklings just wandered into my place. I can't find their parents. Do you have any tips on what sort of grasses they prefer?

[@yoeljimenez9487]

Great footage, very informative!

[@x35gaming]

i have one as a pet that we hatched, her name is "cheep"

[@leons5k]

Why they don't go to the water?

[@allthingswildlifeyt1218]

Great video. Reminds me a lot of bbc earth.

[@TheNatureEnthusiast]

Thanks so much :)

[@duckieboit_t5972]

Me and my family rescued a bunch of these babies. We found there are perants the next day a released them:

[@UltraMagaFan]

I have a question. Do these things taste good? The wood ducks we have here in the southeastern United States taste amazing.

[@AllinGold2]

Totally different breeds. All ducks taste good though.

[@Abraxus34]

actually its Chenonetta jubata - but this is not a wood duck at all.

[@theskyisblue8979]

We have wood ducks and black ducks and I've always thought it would be so easy to just take one out with a rock and eat it. Maybe that's just me.
