Right Kevin; I think it's their superior hearing that alerts them to the incoming wing beat sounds of the ducks. And you're right they are alerted long before we are. Heck, most of us are as deaf as a stone.

A black lab taught me how to waterfowl hunt. She, also, had infallible radar for seeing incoming doves long before I could!!
