Ducks are some of my favorite birds to watch in early spring because they get active so quickly in the season, and have a huge variety of really cool behaviors that are super easy to see.
This video shows you 6 of the most common behaviors and things to look for in dabbling ducks like Mallards during spring:
1. Male vs Female
2. Courtship behaviors
3. Dunking vs Dabbling (Bathing vs Feeding behavior)
4. Solo Males (And Territorial Behavior)
5. The Mating Dance
6. The Following Quack (Nesting Call)
Other dabbling ducks relevant to this video include the American Black Duck, American Wigeon, Gadwalls, Pintails & Teals.
