Video: Baby Ducklings Hatch in Tice Creek

Wood ducklings hatch in box nests along Tice Creek.

Brian Murphy sends along a video he shot last week of baby ducklings emerging from their shells in nests along Tice Creek. 

Murphy and his crew have placed box nests along the creek to bring the native wood ducks back, and it's worked very well, as evidenced by the tenacious duckling that struggles from the confines of his shell. 

Enjoy this adorable footage.
