Ducklings blown off their feet by wind -Toronto

Anyone seen this yet?  Amusing and concern at the same time!

Oh No Chibi!

This is a true Japanese story & video my wife shares with her 3rd graders.

They read that story as they hatch ducklings and learn about the reproductive life cycle.

Hmm let me see if I have it at my workplace, thanks for the book title

Amazing recovery and getting back in line- the U.S. Marines may be interested- a "few good ducks" (plus they're amphibious)

I can never stop laughing  and be inspired whenever I watch this clip.  I really wonder if all 15 ducklings belong to the mother duck?  Reason is because for the life of me, I cannot imagine a duck can successfully hatched so many eggs.

 

If some of these ducklings are orphaned, I am very touched by the action of this mother duck.

Tough little buggers!

Humans could take an example from the mother duck. We'd rather busy us with ourselves rather than with our kids though, it seems ;)
