EDITORS COMMENTS
Love is in the air! Check out this dapper gentleman, the ultimate smooth operator of the bird world. Meet CAN-2143, also known as Mr. Ruddy Duck - a true heartthrob with his irresistible courtship display. This male duck knows how to make a splash and steal hearts! With his stubby yet charmingly adorable appearance, he's got all the ladies swooning on lakes and ponds during summer. But don't be fooled by his short thick neck; this little fella can move like lightning with his fast and uneven flight style. Identifying him is easy-peasy: just look for those white cheeks peeking out from under that stylish dark cap! And let's not forget about that long uptilted tail – it's like nature's way of saying 'I'm ready for love. ' But here's the catch – despite all these efforts to impress, our handsome drake prefers to remain silent during courtship. Maybe actions speak louder than words in his book? So next time you're strolling along New York's enchanting waterways, keep an eye out for this charismatic Casanova making waves with his romantic moves. Just remember, ladies beware – once you've seen CAN-2143 in action, your heart may never be the same again!
