Anyone have any expierence with ducks? (See Question)

Ok, so when I looked out my window this morning I saw a 10 ducklings in my pool with the mother duck. When I came home, I count 13, so they all have hatched today.

Normally I wouldn’t mind having a bunch of cute ducklings in my pool, I would let them stay. The thing is, my cat is an expert bird catcher. I have managed to keep him in the house today, but it is only a matter of time before he escapes and gets one.

There is a pond near my house (I’m about 99% certain that is where mom came from) that I would like to move them to, if this is possible.

I just don’t want to round up all of the ducklings and mom, move them to the pond, and have mama abandon them. Does anyone have experience in moving ducks, or just wild ducks in general? The ducklings are running, swimming and hopping, very good for a day old. Can I safely move them?
