I raised my duck and geese indoors briefly and the pitter patter their feet made melted by heart every time. Then you step in their shit and pray the cold weather go away so they can get the fuck out!
Cute thing geese do is lower their head and walk to you wit their mouth open, I call it the charizard pose since it looks like she's trying to breath fire.
Also they run across the yard flapping like their lives depended on it, only to get maybe 2 inches of air.

Have you seen the Untitled Goose Game? It's a brilliant piece of art in which you play as a goose causing mischief in an English countryside village. I played it and absolutely fell in love.

I've had /r/greatpyrenees.
They're intelligent, regal, handsome, loyal, loving...and fucking gross. They shed everywhere. They slobber on everything. They love being dirty...but you absolutely look past those flaws because they're such good dogs and you love them...
I'd be pretty pissed about stepping in shit, but you look past the flaws of good pets.

I'm a UPS driver and one day this sound really had an effect on me. A bunch of ducks (right around 50 or so) were running across wet pavement and it sounded like a small army was running. Just a bunch of little plaps.

Is that a duck in duck-crocs? They look like they match
the runnerboth runners running with it. I know the waterproof part is redundant but if I'm right, someone was seriously looking out for Ducky. Those things are definitely not off the rack. I love the little wing flutter to the finish line.I had like 5 more duck jokes but imagining Duckward "Ducky" Duckly-Duckington III, Esq. wearing Crocs from Overcroc.com is enough for me. (okay, that's all five)

If you watch any of his videos, it is an exceptionally well cared for duck that wants for absolutely nothing as he carts her around on various adventures. Initially I thought it was sad she didn’t have a duck partner (common for them as pets) but she really has his undivided attention. 10/10 recommend a casual viewing. It’s incredibly wholesome

Duck / duck owner definitely weren’t running a sub 6:00 mile pace earlier in the clip, and also there were toddlers running the race.

Have some friends who had ducks and they discovered that walking on hard surfaces without any support is incredibly hard on duck feet. They had to start restricting their time on the patio/kitchen/etc

Idk about Wrinkle but the ducks around me will follow people, there was about 100 of them and we went to say hi, my little one got freaked out at how fast the came up to us then they went after the mail guy sitting by us lol

I didn’t notice that at first, but that’s fantastic! Especially since duck feet are pretty delicate for running on concrete that much, I’m glad he had shoes!

I think it was a 1K fun run for kids. I'm convinced nobody really understands how long a marathon is, you have to train pretty hard for 6 months just to complete the fucking thing. I thought I was in great shape for my last one and I barely got in under 5 hours.

Can we stop calling it a marathon? Based on that time clock, it was maybe a few miles - at best. I'm sure that this funrun was a precursor to the larger marathon.

That’s not a marathon. The amount of children there, and their pace - and a duck finishing in 18 minutes. That’s probably no more than 1.5 miles. A marathon is 26.2 miles.

hate to be that guy, but this is clearly not a marathon. probably a 5k.
I mean, there are kids running, and the finish time is like 18 minutes
sorry, I know that's super pedantic but I see this clip posted all the time and the title always annoys me. like "duck runs a 5k" is still funny. why are we lieing to each other </3
