A Breed All His Own...

Every morning on my drive to work I pass many ponds.  In fact my work is surrounded by ponds, ponds full of ducks, ducklings,  5 pelicans, and (the birds that are off of Fly Away Home).  Amongst all the normal animal life that is living in the pond there is this creature....

Is this a Duck?  Is this a Goose?  Is this a duck that was in a dog fight? 
At first I was a bit scared of this thing.  He/she seemed extremely aggressive, full of attitude and unafraid of humans or cars.  In fact my first encounter with "crazy duck" was while I was waiting at a light to turn left.  While I was waiting patiently, Crazy duck walked right up to a car that was in front of me. I was immediately interested because the duck was in the middle of a busy road, showing no fear and no intent of moving out of the way.  I drove away that day worried that Crazy Duck would get hit by a car.  Fortunately he did not because he was at the pond the next day.

I figured everyone needed another look.  His feathers seem ruffled like he was in a animal scuffle, that was my first theory.  But day after day his feathers looked this way.  Why does his feathers not go back to normal.  The more I saw this duck the more I realize that he was a special duck.  Not a fighting duck- a new breed of half duck half goose.  This weird combo of genes has created curly feathers.  This is the first bird to have a curly feather do.  Now everything makes sense.  I now know why this duck is not embarrassed by his appearance- why he doesn't hide from peoples stares.  He will not hide- he is proud to be one-of-a-kind.     A breed all his own.
