Feeding A Swarm Of Mallard Ducks At The Duck Pond - Feeding Frenzy and Duck Sounds
Like 0 Dislike 0 Published on 4 Aug 2019
At my local duck pond, many Mallard Ducks are sitting around and swimming, hoping that someone would give them a nice snack to eat. I come every few days to feed my feathered friends some seeds. The ducks come swimming fast when they know I have food, they allow me to get very close to them. A lot of the ducks in the pond are aggressive and will peck or flap their wings at the other ducks. There are a few young ducks that always come for food, the mother duck is often very close to them, watching me and protecting her children.
There are a lot of wild ducks found at my local pond, the ducks are always hungry, waiting for someone to feed them. When I arrive at the duck pond most of the ducks sit in a row along the edge of the pond. I often come to feed them a few handfuls of birdseed. These Mallard ducks have an incredible amount of energy. They peck, fight, and push each other when they are hungry. Two Canada Geese decided to live near the pond, I feed them as well. When I start feeding the wild ducks, start quacking very loudly while getting very excited and angry at one another. I eventually in this video run-up to the swarm of ducks and startle them, and they fly and jump into the water all at once and make loud and powerful flapping sounds with their wings, soon to come back to look for more food. These Ducks love to swim in the water. I have never had problems with Geese or Ducks pecking back at me.
They were noisy constantly quacking. At this pond, there were a lot of female ducks sitting on the edge of the pond and swimming in the water.
There is always an abundance of very hungry Mallard Ducks sitting around waiting for someone to come by to give them a treat. I had fed the ducks a little bit of birdseed, soon the ducks were starting to fight over the food. Some of the ducks were toppling over each other, running around, crowding each other and pecking at each other's feathers. The ducks were pecking each other when I came around to feed them. These ducks have a lot of energy and can be vicious to one another.
I fed multiple ducks some birdseed. Ducks can be very vicious when they are hungry, defending their food, preventing the other wild birds from taking it. After all of this aggression, all of the birds appear to be unharmed and continue on their day. It was fun making the Ducks fight each other for food.
I have a lot of footage of me feeding the ducks, I have separated the video into multiple parts.
