- Wood duck jump day video for those that missed seeing the event today on the live cameras. Three cameras were used: a telephoto view from the side, the camera looking down inside the duck nest box, and a new (for me) camera low to the ground below. The low camera was hidden from the ducks by a dark filter so that it could be close to them and still swivel and pan without scaring them.
I can't stop watching this brave little duckies...
I'm in deep 💟💞💞💞💞
From Brazil 🇧🇷😘💖
Awesome Videos! The Wood Duck is the most graceful and most beautiful of all the ducks! Have a Blessed Day!🙏🇺🇸
Look at the Peking duck - stunning!
The male duck that is!
What a lovely place you got there.
Out of 18, only a few(very few) will survive btw.
Please take good care of them.
Thank you for sharing.
The stream, the small garden, the grasses, wooooow.
I feel so alive just seeing all this together in one place.
This is a great movie! Thank you very much!
These ducklings are truly fearless, jumping from that height!
Yes, great video! But if you want to see fearless, watch these baby chicks jump off a cliff... czcams.com/video/pnQaRkZTeiU/video.html
There are some birds that jump from much higher and onto rock, not grass.
Hello 👋 subhan Allah beautiful birds🐦 thank you very much to this video Am from BAGHDAD IRAQ 🇮🇶
Thank you for making that house for the duck family and filming it for use to watch.
Nice beautiful birds thanks for the Great Creators Jah.
Truly amazing and truly appreciated uploading video.
Mother nature is landing at Normandy and the ramps are going down for these babies! Bless these little creatures, ducks/ ducklings live a rough life.
These animals are gorgeous!
So are you.
Thanks so much for sharing and the very best to you and your intermittent critters!!
So soft, delicate, light and adorable creation
Oh, so nice video. The perseverance and the attitude of the camera-man is all the more laudable. With this approach we can the world a better living place . And all species can be saved from extinction.
Just beautiful...I hope they are all ok...love mother nature..xoxo
I am convinced that she CAN count...even without toes or fingers!!!!!!!
I am watching through your videos and enjoying each one. Thanks for the posts!
Great, I'm glad you're enjoying them. If you put your email address in via the "Subscribe" button at my site (also see the "Subscription Info" button) then you'll receive messages when the live cameras start up next spring. Thanks for. your comments, it's fun to know that you are enjoying the videos.
Thanks for this great life of ducks.
i believe she can count because she did not return to the box to see if they all made it out nor did she peak over the rail of the garden. Amazing little birds. It really helped that you had a nice garden to break their fall.
Someone mentioned in a comments section in a different post that when the mother duck cannot hear chirping coming from the nest box, she knows all her hatched babies are out.
@@ewaleokadia76 --Thank you Ewa...listening is not one of my strong suits which is probably why that didn't cross my mind.
I appreciate your reply. :-)
@@scooterpush You're welcome😊. For your information, until I learned differently, I, too, thought duck mothers can count😂.
Beautiful video. Thank you for sharing.
I enjoyed watching your video, good job very nice and great I like it.
Awesome filming thank you
What a beautiful heart warming video💕🐥🐤🌾🍀
Thank you for keeping the natural sounds and voices! Too many CZcams videos add annoying music
Love the garden that you have with a stream flowing nearby....take me for a visit there please...:)
18 ?!!! Now that's a herd to keep track of LOL That was wonderful, thank you for sharing.
You're welcome, and thanks for the comment! Yes it's hard to count them in the video. I reviewed it just now because when watching it again I wondered if perhaps during editing I had accidentally duplicated a low angle shot - so many leaping little ducks! But I found that the times in the corners of those clips show no duplicates and I also confirmed that the inside and low angle clips are in chronological order. There are 21 separate duckling-jump events in the video because in one case I included both the low angle and the side view video of the same 3 ducklings (2:50 to 3:04) . I know there were 18 because 1) if I play just the side view footage all by itself straight through it's easy to count and 2) there were 19 eggs and one did not hatch.
@@7kabel7 Oh, I know there are 18, I counted them following the mother over the curb. What I meant was, 18 is a lot to keep track of for the mother. I don't believe they can count, as we think of counting, but they always seem to know if one is missing or not. I don't think I ever saw a family quite this big. They are amazing animals, and very very cute :)
Really wonderful! Thank you very much with greetings from germany!
@@JyttesTrailCamera Yes, that was a good way to count them. The largest brood we've had here in past years is 26, which means that at least 3 and probably more hens contributed eggs. The incubating hen then gets to raise them all! One reason wood ducks have such large broods is that they have a high mortality rate: ducklings are food for many furry, feathered, and finned creatures. It does seem like they can count but it's because the ducklings can make a very loud peeping sound and the mother can track that. So if one gets separated it yells for mom and she'll often (but not always, sadly) come back for it. Also how does she know when all of them have jumped? Again, she listens. As long as she still hears peeping from the nest she will keep calling. When all is quiet up there she leads them away. More info: birdsgv.com Thanks for your comments.
@@7kabel7 That makes sense. 26 is a lot! Thanks for your answers, I'm reading your blog now. All new to me :)
Enjoyed watching, thank you for sharing.
Wow by far this is the most ducking I see hatch by a single duck, maybe it's because it had a duck house so all the eggs hatched. So wonderful!!!
Wonderful video, thanks for posting it!
WOW, THAT WAS SO COOL. I OFTEN FEED AND HELP OUT THE DUCKS HERE AS WELL. CHEERS FROM MEXICO.
This was such a cute video!!
Mama duck says: okay now team, we've learned skydiving, now let's go kayaking. Excellent video 7kabel7.
Beautiful thanks so much for sharing...xoxo
That was a well done nature video. I learned something new. Appreciate your work.
Sweet mummy and babies😍😘😘❤️
So many Ducklings. I love Ducklings.
Love your videos!
Lovely duck
Sending the best wishes from Siem Reap Angkor Wat, Cambodia
Very good idea the rank inside to help them climbing. Only the box was not planned for sooo many inhabitants! ☺🕊
What a beautiful world we got
Saya sangat suka dgn video ini..

Son las maravillas del creador de todo lo que existe, es el paraiso que contemplan nuestros ojos, ?quien les enseña a esos bellos paticos lo que deben hacer? Solo la sabiduria que el señor les da, en otras ocaciones vuelan de unos riscos muy altos y la mayoria se matan al caer,!!! Es admirable las obras de nuestro DIOS!!!!
A lovely video thx
Bravo pour cette vidéo! Mignon! Mignon! Mignon! Adorable! Merci! Wood duck Je complète avec Wikipedia.
I have a wood duck box on our pond and am always curious as to what goes on inside. Wonderful video. Thanks.
Such as good pictures I’ve seen
So much of the vitality!
Gods speed on your journey little ones. Be Safe.
Nature at best!🐣💕
Nice video. Thanks
Wonderful good work
birds are as wonderful as you
Beautiful 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Hope you can find them again...♡♧
Why exploring the moon and outer space. Our life is not long enough to explore even a fraction of the beauty we have on earth. And thanks to technology and people like yourselves we can see a few while sitting on our armchairs indoors. Thank you. .
This was easier to watch than the geese making their 2 day old chicks jump off the side of the mountain in the winter time!
Awesome ! 🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤
Thanks
So cute how they parashoot out 💕😂☝

wow...she has quite a lot of babies
Very very super and nice
Boa ação do morador fazer o cantinho pros patinhos lindo gostei ☺
God is awesome!
18! God I did not know they had so many.
Our record here is 31 eggs, of which 25 hatched! A duck lays about a dozen, so this was the work of 2, 3, or maybe 4 female wood ducks. They lay eggs in other duck's nests. Hooded mergansers also lay eggs in wood duck nests, and vice versa. For example, today the South nest (see birdsgv.com) has 13 wood duck eggs and 2 merganser eggs in it. Each day in the past week two wood ducks have shared the nest; kind of unusual for them to do this peacefully. For more about this strange behavior, see my birdsgv.com web site, scroll down, and use the "Ducks Info" button.
18 chicks is a lot plus the parent to fit in that box.
Yes it's very crowded in there for just one day, until they leave. But before that the duck is in there incubating for about 30 days. She won't use a nest box that''s too big - she needs a body-sized space to keep the eggs together while incubating. For more details see birdsgv.com, scroll down and try the "Ducks Info" link. Thanks for the comment.
Sensacional isso é muito bonito Pacajus Ceará Fortaleza
I've always wondered, what is the metal umbrella type thing under the box?
It prevents predators from possibly climbing up the pole to the nest to eat eggs and even harm the adult. Around here that's mainly raccoons.
@@7kabel7 That makes sense. Thanks for answering.
@@7kabel7 Dear brother Bravo to you 💝 I am very happy to see your fantastic wonderful video about the nature ❤️🌺 🎨 You are a man of Good Taste 👌👌👌 Love from Imam painting Studio 💎 Karachi Pakistan 👏🤲🙌🤲👏🙌🤲👏🙌🤲
How would you like to be on the bottom of that pile? Adorable!
soo cute
Very nice
Their nest wasn't that high. Thanks for being mindful.
I wonder if the same hen comes back each time?
Ducks that are successful do tend to come back to the same area. There is one that has a very distinct pattern on her bill that we've seen each spring for three years. She visited the nest again this year, but didn't stay. Otherwise, it's really hard to tell them apart. They can live for over 10 years, but most of them make it to only 3 or 4.
👏
Awesome
💖💗💕💕❤👍
👍👍👏👏love Brasil
first duckling to leave was rearing to go - didn't even flinch
Mind relaxing....
I enjoyed this. Did you try to hatch duck egg?
No, but people do ask about that. Even more, they ask about the duckling left behind in one of my other videos. Here's an information page about both questions. www.birdsgv.com/lastduckling.html Thanks for the comment.
Hacía años que no contemplaba ésto.-
Who runs everything so nicely? Who is destroying everything in this planet? Who is most hungry?
I've always thought that there has to be a better design for duck boxes.
In nature they go for round (i.e. hollow trees) but they don't seem to object to square. The other dimensions: sides of the box, door opening size, door height from the bottom, are all matched to the duck's preferences. They won't use a nest box that''s too big since they need a body-sized space to keep the eggs together while incubating. They want a door that fits them exactly and for it to be above the bottom of the nest. In a hollow tree the opening could be 10 feet up - quite a climb for the ducklings - and the jump may be from tree-top height. As for other things, the West nest has a camera that looks in from the side instead of down from the top which is certainly a Design Improvement ... for us!

@@7kabel7 I was really impressed with the boxes. Not something I'd seen before either. The 'climbing net' was a real great addition.
