A heartwarming video has emerged of a construction worker returning her babies to a mother duck.

The footage, shot in Burnaby, BC, Canada on May 25, shows the man carrying a box full of ducklings he found stuck on the roof of a building set to be demolished.

As he walks towards a safe place to release the baby ducks, their mother can be seen following him.

"These ducklings were stuck on the roof of a building that was scheduled to be demolished," the filmer wrote online.

"If they had been left there they would have died. Construction workers were informed about the ducklings, then they decided to initiate a rescue mission."

"The ducklings were then released and quickly ran to reconnect with their mother," he added.
