The Best Duck. I will not be taking questions at this time #birds
The best looking duck with rust coloured body, white cheek, black cap and an oversized bright blue bill. It is the best duck. It is the ruddy duck.

This character was pretty focused on their patrol but of course they don’t miss much so I got a good once-over. Apparently I was deemed non-threat 😂
