WITH VID

Check out this heartwarming moment as a lost duckling finally finds its parents after being separated from them.
Sheriden Rhodes, from New South Wales, Australia, found the tiny duckling alone and quickly realised it had become separated from its family.
The video shows the adorable duckling snuggling into Sheriden's daughter's neck before crawling up her sleeve and refusing to leave her side.
The family searched along the river for the duckling's parents but could not find them.
After arranging for a wildlife rescuer to be on standby, they returned to their vehicle with the little bird.
They decided to make one final attempt and drove back to the spot where the duckling had been found.
Miraculously, they spotted the parents on the opposite side of the river beneath a bridge.
The duckling was carefully placed on the riverbank and immediately began calling out to its parents.
The parents quickly rushed towards their baby before the reunited family swam away together.
Sheriden said seeing the duckling finally reunited with its parents was an incredibly special moment after they had almost given up hope of finding them.
One user commented: ‘That little reunion had me smiling from start to finish.’
Another added: ‘The way the parents came rushing over to their baby is absolutely beautiful.’
