As my non-birdy friends would say, “You had to go all the way to France to see ducks?”
No, but since I was there ….
where you find feet, you find food
not even a peep is needed to convey meaning
They speak a universal language even I can translate. “Quack” means “feed me!”

Michelle, I confess to not listening as closely as you have. I’m afraid I categorize any duck sound as a quack. I’ll have to start paying more attention.
Wren..thank you for the kind comments on my blog, I do appreciate it. I thought that all ducks quacked until I moved near a pond. I tell people if it quacks, it’s a mallard female….or Daffy duck..
G, I agree with you. They can be cute and funny, even if they are “common”
Roasted? kidding, woodcarved mallards are nice but the real ones are a beautiful photo opp!
My kids love feeding them, sometimes giving all their supposed picnic bread to them!
Deborah – glad you enjoyed
Fishing Guy – ‘fraid not on the cooked duck
Wren: What a fun post and that is a long way to go to feed a duck. that is unless you were having some cooked duck later.
Thanks for my morning smile!!
A fun post… I was chuckling the whole time! Beautiful shots of the ducks. They do look well fed… =)
