Default Ducks.

So apparently, our cul-de-sac has been adopted by a pair of ducks as a new home. They hang out on our lawns, bathe in the sprinklers, and generally act like they belong here. today, while I was getting ready to wash my car, they even walked into the garage and looked at me kind of expectantly. So I fed them some Tostitos. We didn't have any bread.

I thought about that myself but concidering the fact that they took refuge by/in a Garage from the wind doesnt make them dumb .. atleast in my rule book ..lol

It's nice to see you making more local friends, Kevin.

At my condo complex there's a crapload of ducks all over. When I go to work in the morning there's always a few right outside waddling around and quacking.

Ah, that explains it. I was wondering where there was enough water around here to keep them around.

I love ducks. And not to eat. I think the avg property value in your cul-de-sac just doubled...
