A wild life photographer in Bemidji, Minnesota was mesmerized by the mesmerizing scene of what appeared to be a mama duck with 76 ducklings.

Brent Cizek captured the images in a series of photos of the incredible Merganser duck squad earlier this summer.

But if you’re like many, you’re wondering how the amazing phenomenon happened.

KARE11.COM reports, all of the ducklings are not fromthe same flock, according to Minnesota DNR Wildlife Manager Dave Rave:.

“What happens is one adult takes the broods from a whole bunch of other Mergansers and they form a creche. That is what you see in picture, one adult female with a whole bunch of ducklings, some of which are hers some came from other ducks.”

Though it appears to be common, photographer could not contain his excitement as he continued capture photos and video.
