O’Malley’s Feathers
Why hello, O’Malley.
“Hi Mom.”
Your feathers are looking beautiful!
“Thanks. I just took a bath.”
No wonder your feathers look great.
“Do you want to see my wings?”
Sure, Malley. Whoa! They’re looking good, kid!
“Wait. Let me show you the other side, too.”
Well this side looks great too, O’Malley. You look just perfect.
“Thanks, Mom.”
I love you, Malley. All the way down to your big dinosaur feet.

Flapper & family would like to wish heartfelt condolences to Pansy and Greg for the loss of their beautiful duck Quack Quack.
Their special duck/kid Quack Quack lived to be 9-years and 18-days-old, which is really good for a ducky. Quack Quack is irreplaceable and will be sorely missed. All the best to Pansy and Greg during this difficult time. We’re so sorry for your loss.

Woah O’Malley Peepers, you are one handsome man! No wonder all the girls adore you! If I were a lady duck I would too, but to tel you the truth, I already do;-)
I still think his colors are amazing, I’ve never seen one like him, in brown yes but not this grey/blue. Very handsome boy.
I had to help Snuggles this morning when Sieb had just chased him into the canal. Poor kid was so out of breath he needed five minutes to regain his posture. I chased Sieb all over the yard, bad bad boy. They are big and beautiful, but can pretty mean too;-)
I’m sorry to hear about the passing of Quack Quack. That’s terribly sad. My deepest sympathy to Pansy and Greg.
I think I read somewhere that among the birds, ducks are the closest living relatives to the dinosaurs. I may be mistaken. But I can believe it, with those feet of his.
My deepest sympathies to Pansy and Greg for the loss of Quack Quack. She was a beautiful duck.
My apologies — I just realized that Quack Quack was a boy duck. Again, my condolences to Pansy and Greg for their loss.
