New mallard baby ducklings

A mallard duck family with new ducklings is settled on the lake of the Botanical Gardens.
The Botanical Garden in my town has a little lake in a part called Japanese Garden.
I saw these beautiful new baby ducks there and I captured them on video while their parents learn them to search for food. The video is at the bottom of the post.
