Make way as this tiny duckling waddles into the spotlight today, ready to charm us with its playful antics! Ducks, with their vibrant plumage and cheerful quacks, epitomise the idyllic rural scene, but they are equally at home in some urban environments. It"s the arrival of ducklings, however, that truly steals the show. Tiny and fluffy, they follow their mothers dutifully, learning the ways of water with each paddle and peck. These waterfowl play a vital role in keeping aquatic ecosystems balanced by feeding on insects and algae.
