I love watching ducks feed the fish--but I wonder why they do it.

1. Share and share alike!

Very cool.

2. ''Unlike chickens, ducks must have water readily available when eating to reduce the risk of choking.''

3. But the other duck isn't drinking, & I'm not at all sure this one is either.

4. There might be a water pan at the far right of the platform which is out of view ...

The duck at the center is just dipping the dry food in water to help it slide down the throat. This set-up seems to be a koi farm attraction since there are similar videos.
