    Ugly Duck

    We call them Durkeys around here, but I'm not sure what it is. My daughter and I go and feed the ducks from time to time and this guy was there....

    Thanks for the duck id. It's nice to know these guys are not a cross breed. I will enlighten my friends as well. These guys weren't around our parts years ago.
