Private property. No public access without permission. Geoff, our resident Musk Duck, needs a friend. He has been working hard; whistling and splashing. Please pass the word around to any female Musk Ducks that Geoff is ready and waiting. ;)

No. :( But at least he seems "happy" hanging out with us. We need to plant lots more reeds to help him woo the ladies! :)
