For those of you who celebrate it, I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving. To find other participants please visit the home of Wordless Wednesday. This is for the Tuesday and Wednesday editions of WW.
I probably should have mentioned in my post that it's a muscovy duck but some people call them turkey ducks. I think they are a little scary especially when they are walking right up to me which this one was doing. They are wild and this one lake is the only place I've seen them where I live.
Turkey duck? First time I've heard Muscovy Ducks referred to as such...I love it! We have many of these guys in Florida and I'm going to start calling them this :-)

Is this for real? Pretty soon there will be a turducken too, right?
ReplyDeleteHappy thanksgiving.

ReplyDeleteIs this an aberration or something :D He looks a bit scary.

I have one word for him....DINNER!! Great shot...Happy WW:)
ReplyDeleteHi Carver. If I am not mistaken, those turkeyducks are the kind that's common in rural Philippines. I agree, they're scary and aggressive, too.
