when you live among the animals, as we are, you get to know them and distinguish among them. Some of the ducks travel in packs, like dogs. And since we are a family that names things, well, we name the ducks. The little mallards are coupled off or individuals, so they have individual names, but the ones in packs, have group names. Like "the bullies" because they run everyone off. And then, there are these four white pekin ducks and another brownish white one that hang out around the apartments like they run they place.
We call them the White Ducks (original, I know) and the odd guy out is Reggie.
If they see you coming, they come up to you. We did an experiment to see if they would come in the apartment...
They totally did! No hesitation!
I didn't want them pooping so Max got them out right away.
But they still wanted to hang out. This picture totally cracks me up! I think the one in the back trying to see what is going on is hilarious!
Their eyes are so dark they look like holes. But they are nice and friendly.
if they weren't so darn squawky, I would say I might even miss seeing them around.
