    THE DUCK SONG

    I am a duck and I like the pond


    Swim and play, all day long
    All my ducklings swim along,
    “Quack,quack” they sing my song.
    “Quack, quack, quack, life is fun
    Search for food, under the sun
    See some snails, they can’t run
    They taste so good, yumm….
    Dad, the drake, he found slugs
    Then there were some water bugs
    Called to us to share his luck,
    And we gave him a big hug
    Together we swim along
    In and out of the reeds we play
    We live a life that’s happy and gay
    Tomorrow’s another day
    blue-winged teals
    cinnamon teals

    Different Duck Species


    Take a look at the other species of ducks. You will be surprised to see how very colorful and pretty they
    look.

    This is the Mandarin duck. They are found in


    China and Japan on ponds and streams. They
    feed on waterplants. The Mandarin duck is a
    perching duck. It likes to perch on trees.

    Mandarin Duck
    These are Mallards. The drake is the one with
    the green colored head while the female is the
    one in brown. It is thought to be the ancestor
    of our farm ducks. They eat small insect, snails
    and plants in ponds and streams. They are
    found in North America. Mallards are dabbling
    Mallard ducks or dabblers.

    The male has a brilliant blue bill. It also has a


    long and stiff tail. During Spring and Summer,
    the feathers are colorful to attract females for
    breeding. The Ruddy belongs to the "Stiff-Tail"
    species.

    Ruddy
    Also known as knob-billed ducks because of its
    fatty comb on top of its bill. The bill is black in
    color. This one is the South-American comb
    duck.
