Duck language

[bassplayer]

If we could translate duck language what sort of things do you think they are saying to us? I'll start with a few....

 

"You wouldn't eat that crap so what makes you think I'd eat it"

 

"Make your bloody mind up which side you're going to pass me....quaaaakkkk"

 

"This is your early morning alarm call...now feed me!"

 

"Hi Richard...I think we've got an overstayer at Stoke Bruerne"

[RLWP]

Do you know that only female ducks quack? The males make a quiet whirring sort of noise

Do you know that only female ducks quack?

It is because they can't get a word in for the females constant chatter!

"Oi, what's with the flippin grapes? Bring back the multi grain bread with the lovely seeds on top"

Personally I always think of the old joke re duck conversations:-

 

Duck (tapping on side of boat),"Got any bread?"

"No, go away"

Duck (still tapping on side of boat),"Got any bread?"

"I just told you no, go away"

Duck (still tapping side of boat), "Got any bread?"

"I'm not telling you again, no I haven't now go away"

Duck (still tapping),"Got any bread?"

"If you don't b*gger off I'll shoot you"

Duck,"Got a gun??"

"No"

Duck, "Got any bread then?"

When they go on and on and on and on....

 

They're laughing at you

They get a lot more "quackier" when they get broody too, I don't what that translates into though

Something similar to duck, with a different first letter I suspect

My wife was cycling to work this week, and a low flying duck hit her on the head. I guess it was saying "duck".

[Chakugan]

One of the ducks at Bugsworth Basin says, as she hops onto the ledge of my side-hatch:

 

"Nevermind your two Jack Russels having a fit, just give me some more of those pumpkin seeds and ignore the other twenty or so ducks outside, they may be bigger but I'm smarter, I'll deal with them later."

Very funny

We had two pet ducks that would come running well waddling for a cuddle with my youngest son and when dog tried to do its business in garden they used to peck her bum..they had character until local fox ate their heads ...left the rest.

 

Guess their quacking at that time translated to oh b.....!

CRT's radio-controlled Torpedo Ducks make no sound they just glide silently towards you on the 15th day...
