It was on Mundesley beach, in Norfolk, UK, looking very sorry for itself.
Dammit.
OK, but at least that one’s bigger—you’ll just have to click it.
Muscovy Duck (Cairina moschata)
oh, and “Steve”
Actually I think it was a lady...

“The females only make a short, weak quack and this is what makes them the quietest of all the ducks.”
But thanks for that. What it was doing on Norfolk beach I don’t know. Probably lost or escaped, in which case I fell a bit sad for it (her).
No wonder she was feeling sorry for herself, being called Steve like that.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscovy_duck :
“Some have escaped into the wild and now breed outside the native domain, including in western Europe and the United States.”
you could amend it to stevie since that little duck looks as if she was much too far out all her life, not waving but drowning.
I think it suits Colin better. To link to an image, do (img src=“url”) and make the brackets pointy.
Roast Dinner
Good to know: according to Wikipedia, this duck is less noisy than roast beef.
“This breed is popular because it has stronger-tasting meat, like roast beef, and is less noisy.”

“Stefford.”
Jemima.
Willis.
Helga
bootsy
Just practising...
Hurrah!
Just looks like a big pebble to me....
Oh, THERE it is......
HUNTA-DUCK
Are its eyes bleeding???
Yes. This is Ned’s second picture, after he turned off his flash.
heh heh.
The red eyes are very distinctive though. I can’t help but wonder what became of Stevie, probably I should have called the RSPB, it was not a happy duck.
Call him:
“Lookout Cheney’s comin’”
