Deborah, just so you know you're not alone here, hee hee, I flew with my duck once. it was totally awesome experience to have wings. silly duck was quaking his head off...I must have been crowding his space, lol. my daughter later said "mom, I had this weird dream you were half duck and half human. ha ha! why oh why can't I have a dolphin totem too? just kidding but I do think the dolphin is an alien species here with healing powers, whereas the duck, well, he's just my beloved duck whom I had to teach to fly. he was one them grounded domestics while he lived. love, alysia
