They are a wonderful breed - very friendly and amusing.❤

[@KathySparkle1]

Very nice duckumentary. First time I’ve seen this type of duck. The little ducklings are mindful of mother’s every move. Glad that the ducks weren’t bothered by the squirrel and mourning dove. TFS this duck family’s visit in your backyard!

The Muscovy are all over south Florida. If you pass by a lake you'll find them.

I thank God for the little things like this that makes such a big impression and nice in life

[@donnaleighjenkins4952]

So cute!! I love watching the Mother & ducklings. Love how the babies stay very close by Mom. So sweet.

[@maryclarafjare]

It's so funny and cute how the ducklings occasionally line up in a straight line to walk

[@MyBackyardBirding]

Yeah, and Saint Augustine grass trips the little ones up sometimes, not so smooth for their tiny legs. BB

[@dannisan77]

The ducklings are so cute and beautiful. I love their yellow coloration.

[@Papa_Izzy]

They have my favorite ducklings. I always looked forward to spring when they would nest in my bushes in Weston when I was a kid.

[@CheikoSairin]

If the Ducks had filmed and commentated, it'd be a "Quackumentary" ~One duck says to his buddy, "Quack." ~His buddy goes "Ya know, I was just gonna say the same thing!"

Lord love them---people hate these in florida-- we Love them here in fort myers-- Nature on display-they can make a mess in yards, but so do we -- the french consider them a delicacy, the high end restaurants serve farm raised muscovy'-- we refuse to eat them-- the babies are adorable-good vid MBYB

[@MyBackyardBirding]

They are fun to have visit - they just kept waddling on after a few hours. BB

That was one brave squirrel. I have seen a tiny Muscovy duckling intimidate a squirrel. He stood there for a while with his tail over his back but finally he ran away. Meanwhile, my camera was in standby. That was 10 years ago and I just him never going to forget that. Wow I was sad. Apparently there were too many Muscovy in our neighborhood and somebody called in the kidnappers. So I went out and bought some ducklings of my own. That was in 2014 and the last one of them died the beginning of October. Her name was Willow she was nine. Before that I had a house duck, she was also 9. But I got her in 2007 after some teenage boys kidnapped her and then couldn't get rid of her. Couldn't find her mom. They dropped her in my driveway. It took 15 minutes or so to catch her. She was a good duck. Her name was Snuggles. Nowadays I have blue and white and other pretty colors. It's fun to see what colors they hatch. Although they seem to hatch much fewer than the black and white wild-type did. It's been 3 years. The first year there were 15, the second year there were possibly 15. This year there were 17. And that's with five or six females. They are beautiful. Not quite as friendly as the ones I raised from ducklings, but on the other hand, with the drakes, That's actually a good thing. They don't hurt you. They sound scary. The one who thought I was his mother, he also wanted me to be his wife. Couldn't go in my backyard for 11 months. I sold him and kept his son. Nice documentary, adorable babies.

Thanks, and thanks for sharing your story! BB

[@maryclarafjare]

Please, if you see these ducks, do not feed them any people food, just let them be in nature. Thank you 😊

[@chargermopar]

I love my quackers, and they leave me delicious eggs! The meat of the male is like steak and is worth a try. They can be hard to kill if you grab em they are strong. Never understood why people hate them, they are great in the garden to eat insects and food scraps.

[@just_ducky_acres7561]

Actually, the Muscovy is not a duck species at all. They are more closely related to geese than ducks but are a species unto themselves.

[@georgeprice5684]

Ducks need water so you must have some sort of pond or lake near you I' bet

[@seaismylove]

Muscovies need water significantly less than other breeds. They are too lazy to swim regularly.

[@cmonster6]

Sorry but these ducks are an invasive species in Florida and quite a nuisance

[@MyBackyardBirding]

Which was explained in the video.

[@cmonster6]

@@MyBackyardBirding wasn’t disputing that,a little touchy there bud?
