It's not uncommon to find a pair of pūtangitangi with their ducklings when coming down the fence line on the western side of the Brook Waimārama Sanctuary. The ducklings are pretty fast, one must run ahead of them to avoid chasing them a long way down the track. The parents will likely hop/fly ahead trying to distract the human(s) from their babies, and once we're well past the ducklings the parents will circle back around to their offspring and resume whatever it is they were doing before the disturbance.
The cuteness of the ducklings is legendary.
