I just built a pond 5 months ago and already seen a pair of wood ducks ! so I made a nesting box and want to build a few more , how beautiful they are !🦆
sequin99 I haven’t seen one in the wild in over 40 years. Just this morning walking along a creek and thinking that I rounded a turn and there were three. I stood there dumbfounded as my wife took pictures. I can’t even begin to tell you the joy that seeing them this morning has brought me. They are so incredibly beautiful.
Wood ducks have always mesmerized me with their amazing call and beautiful personality and plumage. In fact, that's true with all ducks! They are such peace loving creatures.
Its been about three years since we moved and left my wood duck pet behind at a friends farm lake near where we lived. As crazy as it was for us, he was as much tame as he was wild. He did his own thing hun gout with the humans most of the time even went for rides on the bass boat while i fished we dabbled. He chose to sleep on the porch with us every night. sort of like an indoor out door cat is for many folks. The sounds they make are just amazing. Very smart, very agile. Great video. Have a look at mine some time.
Your backyard is a magical place indeed. You must have a powerful lens on your camera to get such awesome shots. They are truly amazing. Thank you for the peak into a world I never could have imagined existed.
woo ducks such jewel of the wild stream river and swamps. Its always a true joy to hear or see them in the wild wild birding, hiking and or canoeing camping. I have never understood why man would shoot stunning water fowl.
Aí como eu amo a natureza, que ligar lindo! Um dia eu quero ter meu continho assim 😍😍🤗🤗🤗 quero viver esse paz, ouvindo os som dos passarinhos 🐦🕊🦃🐓🐔🐣🐤dos marrecos,dos gansos, dos patos ☺🙌
Culturally, wood ducks to a Chinese is like a mourning dove for American. Almost all Chinese gardens try to host a pair of wood ducks. Plus, wood ducks are the only non-mythical animal that has different Chinese name according to their gender.
ferociousgumby we don’t actually blow them to pieces. We do shoot them however with shot strong enough to pierce into vitals and or brain without damaging to much meat, then we either pluck or breast them out for the grill/oven.
@@yeeyee1649 most likely a private collection, could be wrong but as someone else in the comments pointed out, one of the females has a band on her. I have a private collection myself
We have a lake on our property that is home to wood ducks and mallards. It did take us a few years to wipe out the geese, lol. Freaking hate American Geese that don't migrate. Absolutely love watching the ducks in the morning though, and just wish there was a way to control the Hawks. Saw a red tail hawk kill a male wood duck the other day. Super sad...
Xavier Gitre hunters as me love these birds so much it’s hard to tell some one who doesn’t hunt how much we do. They one the most beautiful ducks their is.
