While walking this morning near the village pond I heard one of the new little
ducklings making a regular throat noise which sound like hiccups.
I watched for some time and the noises were about every 5 seconds but the bird didn't seem to be in distress and the parents weren't showing any concern.
Is this a problem for the little mite and should I alert anyone?
prev sting
  
next As well as it being immoral s it illegal to imprison bats?

It's not uncommon for birds to get hiccups (Google for 'bird hiccups' - lots of links - including videos!). Doesn't seem to do them any harm.
