Did you know?
Ducklings are among the most endearing waterfowl, known for their fluffy yellow down and tendency to imprint on the first moving creature they see after hatching—often their mother, but sometimes humans. They're dabbling ducks, feeding by tipping forward in shallow water to reach aquatic plants and invertebrates, and they fledge and can swim within days of birth.
