Blowin' in the wind: ducklings vs high winds video

[wraithfodder]

Here's the original video, which is all over the web, of mama duck and her ducklings battling it out with the high winds in Toronto. You can go to YouTube and find more (somehow, this doesn't seem to fit with rap music, but someone did it).

Awwww!! Poor things. I hope they made it to cover and stayed put. :-(

I know. Wow. I read an article and if I recall correctly, they were okay afterwards.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Pretty sure they were okay.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! Poor babies! :( I'm glad they were ok though. I love baby ducks - they're so cute.

Poor things. I would have scooped them all up, poor babies.

Awwwwwwwww, poor little things! They went far!

They seem none the worse for it (hardy things ducks!) but even so - bless.

just posted another entry on the origin of the video (and how the ducklings fared).

They came out okay. Just my most recent post.

THey fared okay :) But I know what you mean.

I dunno... but instead of filming it, I would have tried to help those little guys. *sniffs*

It may not have been viable for the photographer to 'rescue' the ducks and being wild animals, it's also risky for the animals. But I know what you mean.
