The most common types of ducks include Mallards, Wood Ducks, and Pekin Ducks. Mallards are often seen in parks and wetlands, while Pekins are popular domesticated ducks.

Some species of ducks can migrate over 3,000 miles in a single season. For example, the Northern Pintail is known for its long migratory routes.

Ducks are omnivores, meaning they eat a variety of plants, small insects, and fish. In the wild, their diet typically consists of aquatic plants, seeds, small fish, and invertebrates.

Ducks have waterproof feathers thanks to a special gland near their tails called the preen gland. This gland secretes an oil that ducks spread over their feathers, making them water-resistant.

Yes! Ducks are capable of unihemispheric slow-wave sleep, which allows them to rest one half of their brain while keeping the other half alert. This means they can sleep with one eye open to watch for predators.

Dabbling ducks are species that feed on the surface of the water or just below it by tipping forward to reach vegetation, small fish, or insects. Mallards are a well-known example of dabbling ducks.

Ducks can fly at speeds of up to 60 miles per hour! However, the average flight speed is closer to 40-50 mph, depending on the species.

A group of ducks has different names depending on where they are. On the water, they are called a "raft," "paddling," or "team." In the air, they are called a "skein" or "flock."

Ducks quack to communicate with each other. They use different types of quacks to express fear, excitement, or to call their ducklings. Female ducks tend to quack more loudly and frequently than males.

The lifespan of a duck varies depending on the species and its environment. On average, wild ducks live 5-10 years, while domestic ducks can live longer, sometimes up to 15-20 years.
