Ducks at 4 weeks (I think)

This is a laptop webcam. Don't mind me swinging it idly about in nauseating, dizzying circles as I run my mouth.

I got out there, and couldn't for the life of me remember anything in particular anyone had asked, so this video ended up pretty pointless.

In no particular order:
The black duck is a Cayuga named Cayenne
The black + brown duck is a Rouen named Pumpernickle
The blue runner duck (taller, grayish one) is Rum
The brown runner duck (the smallest one) is Grog
The yellow Buff is Jim (yes, the breed name is just 'Buff')
The yellow+white+awesome one is a Welsh Harlequin named Kovacs. Bonus points if you can figure out why.

@777Marlene - there's two that look white; one's sorta white-ish with colours on her wings, that's Kovacs. The other solid coloured one is Jim.

It's amazing what one can do with nothing but scrap wood, a screwgun, a jigsaw, and a little bit of determination.

@CodyOriole ....oooh...well Jim is the one i thought was kind of handsome....what kind of personality is he of?......he's not a troublemaker is he?.....yeh it is amazing, all i know is that if i was a duck,i'd pay rent to live there

[CodyOriole]

@777Marlene - considering that duck eggs can easily fetch $1.50 each where I live, they'll be paying rent soon enough =)

Jim's not a troublemaker at all. Loves to sit at the edge of the kiddie pool, on a brick, and watch the other ducks and birds up in the trees and stuff.

duck fortress. awesome.

[CodyOriole]

@videokidsam - well, I've been working on it so it'll keep out things like raccoons (which are a pain in the ass, btw) so it needs to be a fortress. =)

@CodyOriole we actually almost got a duck for our backyard and the landlord was like, go for it, but watch out for the raccoons. we decided it was too risky in our neighborhood. mad props for your duck security success!

@VampyreAri - you can't have them =D But thanks. I've always wanted ducks, and now I'm happy.

@TransInsight - people here where I live are still always 'ma'am' 'honey' 'girl', etc... which doesn't bother me terribly. I live here, they're all used to seeing me, and they know me as a girl. But everywhere else I go? Damn. Man man man sir etc. I'm afraid of getting arrested for using the public restrooms some days! lol

@JoaquinJack27 - funny, I'm jealous of my voice drop too. I wish it sounded as good to me as everyone else thinks it does. ~ But I think it'll just take some getting used to. Singing is great fun now, howevermuch everyone else cringes; I think it's awesome =)

Get yourself some T! Your voice'll drop like a rock too.
