An incredibly friendly and sociable Muscovy duck (I think) at a park in Narrows, Giles County, Virginia. The duck must have approached me at least ten times. I suspected the duck thought I had some food for it. The title is from the song "Why Can't We Be Friends?" by War on the 1975 album of the same title. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHmmjnEdtx8" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHmmjnEdtx8</a> <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/" rel="noreferrer nofollow"></a>This work is licensed under a <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/" rel="noreferrer nofollow">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License</a>
