It's a Muscovy duck. I own a couple. They don't quack like normal ducks, but they hiss. They're quite friendly, and their meat is very high quality because they're so large.

I believe that's the Bubbleyum Warbler, frequently seen in southern North Carolina and the Adirondack's.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

As DGG said, it's a Muscovy duck, and those bumps on the face are normal.

This is Ed, my Muscovy. He's battling Spiderman.

I think it's the Croc-o-duck Kirk Cameron was talking about!

Thanks folks! I know how friendly they are because they gather around me whenever I see them. (Of course I talk to them sweetly because I love them). But up to now, I never saw one with so many different features going on in the face and neck.

You could say they're quite ugly, actually, but I think they're adorable.

Haha Borstal.

What can I say? Florida has ugly ducks.

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson

LOL, better yet, get me one on all kinds of wildlife! That's one reason I like it down here-so many interesting creatures to look at.
