I guess they think it’s their mom? I’ve read that many times! maybe it’s true.
but the Dude is wonderful! and he seems to really love them! LOL!
“Imprinting is a form of learning in which an animal gains its sense of species identification. Birds do not automatically know what they are when they hatch – they visually imprint on their parents during a critical period of development. After imprinting, they will identify with that species for life.”
I think some of the women’s narrative is distracting, but I’m glad she shared the video with us. 🙂

Very touching as this type of clips usually are. Thank you.
You’re welcome. 🙂
