Runner Duck

 Actually a domestic duck but they seem to have gone feral and several of these birds can now be seen at Ferrymoor Flash.  Also known as  Indian Runner ducks who knows if they actually originate from India. It is said they do come from India and Bali. They are tall and slender and look quite amusing they way they waddle about.
