They hatched yesterday, gone today! NOTHING on the trailcam! They are fast. Faster than 5 seconds...

At great personal pain (deerflies and mosquitoes galore!) I found out that the wood ducks are gone. There were about 17 eggs, and two remain unhatched. With a 90-day survival rate of 30%, that's darn good.

Happy flying little birdies!!! YAM xx
I've seen videos of these guys leaving the nest. They don't waste any time. There's usually one that has many second thoughts.
Wow! 17 eggs!!! That's amazing. I hope they're all out enjoying the spring weather.
Quite a lot of eggs!
They sure leap a long ways down for being so fresh out of the shell. - Margy
