Here is my card for Teapot Tuesday and the challenge of adding some water fowl to our card. I've had this stamp forever and it was fun to dust off and use again. Our neighbours have a mallard couple nesting in the far corner of their yard and we often see them waddling across the lawn. This duck pair were spotted on the roof of our house last week and have often made their way to our neighbours front door only to turn around and waddle back to their nest.
Fun fact: When ducks are walking on land, they are a "flock of ducks" or a "waddling of ducks." When flying, they are a "skein." And when they are swimming, you can call them a "raft of ducks." What you call a group of ducks, greatly depends on their location.
Enjoy!

Wow, that's a great duck stamp, and you've colored it really well. Interesting you have a somewhat personal connection with some Mallards, although I'm not sure I'd want to open the front door to find a pair of them standing there...
