[QUOTE="Woodyg3, post: 738879, member: 24569"] Yeah, these are domestic ducks, likely dumped by people who got tired of caring for them. Most domestic ducks cannot fly well since they have been bread to have very large breasts. We had some domestic ducks in our neighborhood lake for a couple of years, and two people traded off feeding them since they had a tough time of it getting natural food, especially in the winter. Amazingly, most of them survived. Eventually they were rounded up and taken to a private pond where they could be looked after. [/QUOTE]
