Observation details

Babies of the duck seen before. Waited eagerly for their sightings but not seen. Hence I moved for otherside of wetland. The LWDuck seen in flight & came cross the railway line. Took a dip & vanished. I ran towards its point of dip but not seen. After cont. Waiting one adult came out from the grasses & flickered the wings & took a fight. Adult took two big rounds over from my head & went for a long drive beyond my vision. I concentrated at the location and I saw 9 babies of the duck...playing with each other ...swimming behind each other but seen inside of grass only.
