These duckies are nothing but publicity seekers. I've seen it before, you can tell by the gratuitous tail feather flapping.

As kids, we used to do this with our ducklings. It was always loads of adorable fun. But our "Duckling Races" in the living room were even cuter.

Our Mom seemed to be a bit less enthusiastic about the activities, though. I think it had to do with the messes they left behind.

I love the fact that scale-model ducks issue high-pitched scale model quacks.

What a lovely thing to see first thing in the morning. I kinda miss having Charlie and Daphne the Wood Ducks living in our bathtub. They're better off at the nature center with other ducks but the little quacky noises they made when I brought them a fresh bowl of water to play in were so adorable.

It is me or did the chirps sound like the duckie saying "Come on, just five more minutes! This sucks, this sucks, this sucks . . ."

mmmm, future foie gras, confit, and peking ducks. So cute and tasty.

Ok, I can't be the only one. I don't think kittens and puppies and duckies are all that cute.

Now bats - they're cute.

Thanks RossInDetroit. As every sports racer knows, Duckies FTW.

THis does fit in BoingBoing stuff, but isn't this better suited to the site that could make anyone vomit rainbows of cute, CuteOverload? I mean damn if I ever need to have a smile put on my face with baby animals or what have you, CuteOverload gives me my fix faster than McDonalds can give me a greaseburger.

Now if we could only get someone dancing a jig all over the world with cute baby animals! I think we'd be set with a permagrin for thew rest of the millenium... =D
