  1. Why not a GoFundMe for moving that (actual) duck out of his puddle and into the ‘mainland’ of New Zealand, or elsewhere?

    Maybe you’d get enough to move him(?) to Canada, somewhere off-limits for the hunters. But a mate there? Likely not, but then maybe get a whole new duck species. (Not likely!)

  2. The first think I noticed about the duck is that he’s banded. Is this so that researchers can track his migratory route to my bathroom? I find that a bit scary.

          1. Thanks for the laugh this morning Jerry. I really did lol at your homeboy comment. And I have to agree: if homeboy was wearing those, it would be quiet for a while!

  3. Too expensive—are you serious? Given your passion for ducks, Jerry, if you scale this purchase in terms of cost per duck post you have every posted, it is about a penny per post. A bargain if I have ever seen one. If it were me, this would be in my bathroom faster than you can say “ducks rock”. Do it for the ducks.

  4. There is also a mallard wine bottle holder, if you are interested. I own one (a gag gift from my father) but it’s function does not meet its form, or perhaps it holds a bottle of wine about as well as a real duck could.

  5. Honestly, and my apologies for being the party pooper, but I think it is not really in good taste. But then, “de gustibus non disputandum esset”.
    And I’m guilty too: I once had a shark jaw toilet seat.

  6. Looks like that price is actually a steal, when you look it up on Google shopping it goes for closer to $100 in a lot of places!

    So did you end up getting it? If you don’t have it by Christmas post again and I’ll take up a holiday gift collection among my bird-loving friends and send it off to the U of Chicago – don’t want to double gift if you already got it though!
