Feeding and petting wild Mandarin ducks
Вставка

- I remember it was around autumn when i first saw this pair of mandarin ducks at the lake in my hometown in Zurich. They really seemed out of place because i know they werent local. As usual i started to feed some of the birds at the lake and this pair decided to join in. But that wasnt the time i recorded the Video. I took some Months until we became "friends" and they were comfortable enough to join me on the riverbench. It realy felt unreal because first i never saw mandarin ducks in real life and second they jumped on the bench to get some food. This went for a couple of month. One day i went to the lake as usual to feed some birds but i couldnt find them anywhere. a deep sadness hit me because i kinda knew they went away. i didt saw them ever since. I hope they are still alive and well.
Pigeon: "Um, quack."
Haha 😂 right
"Yes, I am a duck. Coo co- I mean quack quack!"

I know everyone raves about how beautiful the males are, but I think the females have a simple elegance to them too
The males just look like a more colorful version of pigeons and chickens mixed together. They sound like that too. The females look like the shiny versions of ravens.
Most women are plain without all the makeup
I probably wouldn't notice the female one with a bunch of pigeons tho.
@@ianarmstrong1636 There's nothing wrong with being plain or wearing makeup
@@animesenpai1163 You'd be surprised, they look sort of smooth and neater compared to Mallards and other kinds of ducks, plus I've never seen one without a male

In Warsaw there's a nice polulation and I even had some mandarines outside my window too - they appear out of nowhere, stay around for some months (sometimes days) and fly away - but still it's a thrilling experience!😊

This was my dad's absolute favorite animal, he passed away 4 years ago but I bet he would have loved this video and would have been super jealous of this guy getting to pet one, those feathers look so soft, I'm allergic but I even want to pet it!
I'm so sorry you're allergic! I'm like your dad, I love ducks and I am so happy to have them and pet them every day. 💜
I don't know if domestic and wild ducks feel the same but I have 2 ducks and they are the softest, plushest, damn things I have ever touched. Sorry you're allergic! You're totally missin out lol
They're my dads favorite duck too, we almost got some, but he really loves cuddling ducks and Mandarins don't have a good temperament
You can be allergic to ducks??
@@silverbeach1557 you can be allergic to anything, if it has feathers or fur I'm allergic to it!

"Ducks annihilate a bowl of peas"
he looks confused when first pet.
like he shouldn’t like it but he does.
ducks like to be petted, I have a lot of ducks and they love to be petted at goiter
The duck’s like ”hey mister, I am an alpha male not a plush toy” when being stroked😄
"I hope he doesn't grab me and serve me as dinner"
I used to feed wild geese in spring and on two occasions a male got very close to me. I couldn't resist petting it and touched it's wing. The goose just gave me a confused look just like the mandarin duck but seemed to tolerate it.
Just like Charlie and Uncle Jack
When the man pets its chest the duck just awkwardly thinking "Ah the things I do for food"
Poor female, the male ate all and even pecked the female.
Some things will never change...
It really has more to do with the fact that he's prettier. And a lil more willing to approach the human.
The goodlooking and confident tend to win out.
Also more likely to be hunted, but there's pros and cons to everything.
In many species of birds it's simply because the male wants to hoard as much food as possible so he can feed his females.
@@sw3604 Nah.
Male mandarin ducks all generally look like that.
Matter of fact. Most bird species, the males have decorated feathers in order to attract mates. Their colors don't indicate how much they will eat.
They also generally bring food for an interested mate.
If you see roosters, they're usually much prettier than the hens, but the main rooster will always call his hens to eat first or he just won't eat until they do.
lol she was so cute , male ducks aren't as generous as other male birds.
I have never seen such a beautiful duck, he almost looks fake he's so beautiful.
Yea I'm kinda dumb struck on how vibrant they are and they are ducks.
(●´ω｀●)Please see my UA-cam
BaeBunni, male birds (and females in some cases) are amongst the most beautiful and vibrant creatures on this earth. I’d argue that only some insects rival their beauty.
@@kroakie4 Along with some tropical coral reef fishes. You're probably already familiar with them, but if not, do an image search for Mandarin Fishes (Synchiropus spendidus), and Red Tailed Wrasses (Anampses chrysocephalus). The Mandarin Fishes are iridescent, so their colors can be hard to replicate. Most images don't really show their huge lacy blue pectoral fins, which they gracefully wave and flutter whenever they move about.
What all of these animals have in common is good color vision and visual communication. Meanwhile ugly, drab mammals use their feces, urine, glandular secretions, and pungent bacterial metabolites in lieu of beautiful colors and forms for communication.
Fish are certainly some of the most visually appealing creatures there are. I love angelfish.
I cannot express how much I appreciate that he feeds the duck with seeds, and not bread.
Literally every wild animal exist
Human brain: *PET IT*
Edit: brUh I don't even have any single pet, too many likes :0

@@hoppinggnomethe4154 technically, you can pet their heads, just stay away from their tentacles at all costs, unless it's one of those island fresh water ones. Those are harmless.

This pair of mandarin ducks is used for weddings in Korea. Because this duck lives with the only one bride or groom in all his life, Koreans are loving and respecting as a bird symbolizing the love and harmony of the couple.

Please be with me
Any animal: excited
Hooman: *I want to pet it*
I like how the skeptical female sits back and lets the male go first and just eyrballs you, then decides you are alright and eats. Cute. I hope some day to have some of these ducks on my farm.
Maybe it's just me but I think the female Mandarin Ducks are also beautiful. They have that nice subtle blue coloration on their head, blue trim on their wings, and a nice white streak across their eyes.
Duck: "Alright, who painted Phil again, come on guys, not cool"
In eastern Asia, the mandarin ducks are believed to be lifelong couples unlike other species of ducks, resembling faithful and eternal love.
Duck: "Just feed, NO TOUCH!!"
Most beautiful bird ever.
Penguin hold my fish
The colors on that male Mandarin duck
what a beautiful duck. Only seen them in person at zoos. The closest thing we have to that here is the wood duck
Fun fact : Mandarin and Wood ducks classified under the same genre, Aix, meaning they're closely related.
Back where I live they're sometimes seen in parks.
I'm glad Donald gave himself a makeover
Mandarin ducks are truly beautiful creatures. Coupled with the fact that they make funny sounds, they're fabulous.
Plus their babies are bittyyyyyyy.
Ducks are the sweetest. I remember being in Prague and befriending them and becoming so close to 1 that she would nibble on my hands and toes.
Meanwhile, Swan and Geese are mean birds. You’ll give them a treat and they’ll thank you with a hiss. 😂😂😂😂😂
What a beautiful bird. Mandrin ducks usually come in a pair and they stay together for life. They are a symbol of perpetual love in Asia. I am glad that you capture them on camera for all to enjoy.
Chinese people think the way female and male mandarin ducks accompany each other symbolizes faithful love between lovers , so Mandarin ducks are always embroidered on clothes or handkerchiefs or somewhere else. These products are either used as accessories in weddings or gifts that girls send to boys to express feelings of love. 💕 So romantic isn’t it? Here is an embroidery link, ua-cam.com/video/uvPDzaIJmXQ/v-deo.html
I also found the gray and brown female beautiful and cute 💚 Hope she got enough food too.
I love how to ducks are like: “gimme food and I’ll let you pat me 5 times”
And the pigeons are like: “give me free food and I’ll give you a wing slap”
Employer: where do you see yourself in five years?
Me:
😂😂😂
Perfect
Woah! They make crumpling noises too? Amazing 👌🙌

Wow they look beautiful. It's my first time seeing it.😘😘
Bird Males: Beautiful, colorful, apex
Human Male: monke
But we are kinda like monkes.
Imagine if we were flash and extra like these male birds. Damn.
I loved how the duck waited for him/her to bring some seed again.

How handsome and beautiful Mr Duck is !
As a duck enthusiast myself I have trained about three generations of the same duck family to eat out my hands. My favourite one I named marinette (though it’s for a cruel reason, it means marinated duck) she sits right on my lap and has cuddles my my pet cats. Its an odd friendship but it works and it’s cute.
@FichDich InDemArsch I didn’t know what to call it..... but like... shooting ducks is a sport, I only do that in duck season tho
The original name: 鸳鸯 carries a lot more meaning than the simple translation "Mandrain Duck". In Chinese culture, yuan (鸳) and yang (鸯) respectively stand for male and female mandarin ducks. In traditional Chinese culture, mandarin ducks are believed to be lifelong couples, unlike other species of ducks. Hence they are regarded as a symbol of conjugal affection and fidelity, and are frequently featured in Chinese art.

I do hope you see your little ducky friends again. I painted mandarin ducks before, and they are some gorgeous birds. You are so lucky to have gotten to make friends with them.
Omg, those mandarian ducks look so beautiful! I wish I had some in my area! I'd love to feed them!
It's amazing that you took the time to learn Mandarin to communicate with them 👏

the mandarin is like the pretty girl at school who gets all the attention over the pigeons
Except the colorful ones are all males, the grey one beside him is a female.
Such beautiful creatures. 🦆🦆 After reading your notes, I too, hope they are alive and well. 🎈
Incredible. Look at these colors, it looks nearly unreal.
Never seen a duck like that before it's really beautiful.

i love how fast ducks eat, very entertaining
That male duck is beautiful, the colours are amazing.
My boss has got two males and a female and they are the most skittish birds I've ever known.
He had two females but one flew into the cage/run door (that was covered) and broke her neck, he didn't hatch them so god knows what happened before he got them.
So basically it's nice to know that if they do have young that the babies might not be as mental as their parents.

Yep this video going living my mind rent free. "Never seen two pretty ducks together? " as I rocked back and forth in an insane asylum.
I swear to god. I thought the thumbnail was in VR chat or something. The angle of it and the colors just made my mind go “VR chat?”
"No more seeds? no more petting, then. I'm just a birb doing business"
That first duck looks like something I would paint in kindergarten
The mandarin duck's big wing feather is the most amazing feather of all birds in my opinion
Just those colors are stunning
