I've been missing for quite a while due to some busyness and today I'm back taking my time to return to share various interesting things that I encountered and the following are
Ten fun facts about ducks:
Ducks have waterproof feathers: Ducks spend a lot of time in water, and to stay dry, they have a layer of waterproof feathers that keeps their skin dry even when they are swimming. The feathers are coated with an oily substance that repels water and keeps the duck dry.
Some ducks can fly at high altitudes: While most ducks are known for their short flights, some species can fly at high altitudes, including the Bar-headed goose, which is known to fly over the Himalayas.
Ducks have a complex social hierarchy: Ducks are social animals and live in groups called flocks. Within a flock, there is a complex social hierarchy, with the most dominant birds at the top of the pecking order.
Male ducks are more colorful than females: Male ducks are known for their brightly colored feathers, while females are usually more drab in appearance. The bright colors of male ducks help them attract females during breeding season.
Ducks have a unique digestive system: Ducks have a digestive system that is adapted to their diet of plant material and small aquatic animals. They have a muscular gizzard that grinds up food and a cecum that ferments plant material.
Ducks can sleep with one eye open: Ducks sleep with one eye open so they can watch out for predators even while they are sleeping.
Ducks are good swimmers and divers: Ducks have webbed feet that help them swim, and they can dive underwater to look for food or to escape predators.
Some ducks migrate long distances: Many species of ducks migrate long distances to breed and feed. For example, the mallard duck can travel up to 10,000 miles in a year.
Ducks have a unique way of finding food: Ducks use a behavior called "dabbling" to find food. They stick their heads underwater and upend their bodies to reach underwater plants and animals.
Some ducks can run on water: Some species of ducks, such as the common merganser, have a unique ability to run on water to gain speed for takeoff.
