    The most noticeable characteristic of a duck is its quacking. In the morning, when he wakes up, he quacks, if he wants to eat, he quacks. If something is dissatisfied, - quacks. If other ducks take food from her, she quacks. If it does not achieve the desired result, it quacks. Quacking instead of business is a bad concept.

    DUCKS IN WORK

    Let's look at a few examples in which the nature of the duck is clearly discernible.

    Have you ever entered a hotel restaurant 15 minutes after breakfast was officially over? If at the same time you meet a duck, you will hear: “I'm sorry, but you were late. Didn't you see the sign outside? We serve breakfast until 10 o'clock. Quack, quack, quack..."

    Orel, on the contrary, will say: “Unfortunately, we have already removed the buffet. Do you cook something in the kitchen for you? What do you want?"

    Do you know a building materials store? On an area of ​​5000 square meters, the only seller is busy with another buyer. Most often with someone who wants to build a skyscraper. What happens when you politely intervene: "Sorry, I have only one question, where can I find brown paint?".

    In this case, the duck will answer like this: “Don't you see that I am serving a client? I can only work with one customer at a time! Wait until I'm done. Quack, quack, quack..."

    A few months ago I wanted to check into a hotel in Atlanta. The place was booked and the hotel confirmed it. When I approached the counter, the administrator said that the reservation, unfortunately, was not valid, and the hotel was full. She left me with this.

    I insisted on my rights. But the only thing the administrator could say was: “If the hotel is full, then it is full. I can't create a number for you. Quack, quack, quack ... ". She didn't want to deal with me anymore. "Yeah," I thought, "it's a duck." That's why I said I wanted to talk to the boss. She said blankly, "He'll say the same." With these words, she wanted to disappear through the door. There must have been a duck pond behind that door, and she would have returned with another duck.

    I asked her to call the eagle. "Who is that?" she inquired. I explained to her: "Call anyone who does not know in advance that nothing will work." She already understood that. The manager who rushed to me was really an eagle and said the following: “Really, the hotel is full. We made a mistake, sorry. I would like to find a solution for you as soon as possible. I will call immediately to find a hotel of the same level with apartments for you. Of course, we will pay the difference in cost. Can I invite you to our restaurant for lunch while we call?”

    Parental behavior of a duck

    Wild ducks pair up before the laying and incubation season. Observing their behavior on the water, it can be noted that each female has her own partner, who guards her and drives away any alien, unmatched male approaching her.

    Ducks choose the nesting place. Most often they nest among the reeds or on the banks of various water bodies, in depressions overgrown with grass, and even in the hollows of coastal willows. During the search for a nest site, which lasts 2-3 days, each female is accompanied by her partner. In the process of these searches, ducks often and loudly quack. After choosing a place, the duck starts building a nest, and the drake guards the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe "settlement". At this time, the male's behavioral reactions to protect the chosen territory are activated. The female lines the nest with nearby material (hay, leaves). She never uses bonfire stalks or fibers for this purpose, in which she herself or the hatched chicks could get tangled in their paws. Depriving them of the ability to move is tantamount to death. It happens that the duck leaves the originally chosen place for the nest, then she lays her eggs outside it.

    Wild ducks lay eggs only in the morning, domestic ducks both during the day and at night. During this period, the drake is nearby and, when the duck sits on eggs, patrols the territory. A wild duck lays no more than 8-14 eggs, because only such an amount can cover with its body and, therefore, sit out. A domestic duck, which can lay several dozen eggs, is also not laid more than 10-15 pieces, as well as a chicken that incubates nested duck eggs.

    At the same time as the start of incubation, the duck stops mating. In this regard, the activity of the testicles, as well as the sexual activity of the drake, weaken, it gradually sheds.

    During the day the duck leaves the nest once or twice to feed and go to the water. Upon returning, she immediately sits on her eggs with wet plumage. Contact of incubated eggs with water promotes better hatchability.
