Doris the Duck visits every day now.

She shows up and hangs out off and on most every day. She eats the birdseed, drinks the water and naps in my flower bed. She no longer runs from me and often quacks to get my attention. 
In the late afternoon she flies off and returns the to local creek. I haven't seen her mate in a couple of weeks, and he was looking rather beat up the last time he was here, so I'm a bit worried that he might be gone. 
Anyway, it's really cool to have a semi-resident duck in my yard. See extras for more.
