China: Hundreds of Ducks Spin in Formation on Darkened Roadway

On December 29, 2025, in Zhejiang Province, located in eastern China, a video recorded a surreal nighttime scene in which more than a hundred ducks formed a tidy square formation in the middle of the road. Under the dim streetlights, the birds marched in a slow circular pattern, forcing passing vehicles to stop and give way. Drivers watched as the ducks continued turning rhythmically, appearing completely absorbed in their movement. Their orderly behavior at such a late hour puzzled many who viewed the clip, and the unusual gathering drew significant attention online.
