The duck's just moistening its food before eating it, as ducklings always do with dry food.

That somehow makes it funnier to me, if a little sad. Reminds me of a little kid grabbing a cookie from a table, looking away, and having to cookie grabbed by the family dog...and repeating the same action without realizing what happened.

Besides, DUCKIE!

Cute! Wonder if it's early development of the "the mouth is open so it needs feeding" reflex.

Except that ducklings (and goslings and cygnets) from an early age feed themselves, unlike baby robins, so I don't think such a reflex exists in those species.
