Can you explain what you need please? Are you trying to rescue birds or rehome them?

 

[Miss Lydia]

Get a group of friends to help so you can surround the mama and ducklings. Mama may fly off but at least you'd save the ducklings from being run over and killed. A large fishing net can help too.

Hi @Donna Friedman

Welcome to Backyard Chickens.
Where are you? What sort of ducks are these? I ask as it is illegal to move wild Mallards in the USA.

If they are mallards and you are in the USA, contact your local wild like rehabber and your state wildlife commission/department for advice

If you have muscovy in danger in a carpark, your wildlife rehabber may help you. It's best if you catch the mama muscovy first as the fluffies will come to her if you put her in a pet carrier or a dog crate. A wildlife rehabber might help you or lend you a suitable big net to catch the mama duck

I don't understand why you want to catch "at least half" Why not all of them? WHere are you plannign to relocate the duck and her ducklings?

I wud like all. Just hard to do myself & not finding helpers. I live in an area w multiple lakes & wildlife. Parking lot Not for Musvovys. TY so much for the advice. Can I just get babes? Send a pick of age appropriate removal. TY

If you can rescue babies mama will most likely fly off. But it would be better if you could rescue mama too
