Hi Bootiewootsy,
I really like this photo even though it is only of a duck there is something that attracts me to it (the picture not the duck).
We had a pet duck once upon a time and it used to sit on my wife's shoulder while watching tv. The funny thing about it was, it walked very much like a dinisaur and was as thick as two short planks. It lived in the house with us and was as free as a bird (Ha). We never could house train it so he did'nt last long. Bit of a daft idea getting a duck for a house pet. So don't go getting too pally with your friend will you.
Just thought I would let you know there are some very wierd people here in the UK.
Cheers
