While running the other day, I passed by a park.  Enjoying the park were happy children, chatty mothers, and busy squirrels– your standard park-goers.

But this park was also home to some not-so-standard inhabitants.  (A few days after my run, I walked back to the park with a camera in order to get the photos below.)

Are they chickens? Are they ducks? I guess I could call them Chucks… or Dickens… or something else that isn’t exactly PG-rated. Whatever they’re called, they sure are odd-looking. Talk about ugly ducklings! Just one more thing to add to the list of funny things I see when I run.

What are some of the funniest things you’ve ever seen, either while out running or just in your day-to-day life?

    I have totally seen “ducks” like that and I have no clue what they are!? I need to try that banana recipe, it looks so good.

    Omg, those birds are crazy! My boyfriend and I are now in an argument. I think they’re half chicken half duck and he thinks its just some rare breed of duck. I wish we could find out whose right!

    Used your banana brulee technique this morning, and it produced a PERFECT texture. You have changed my breakfast world forever:)

    The most exciting thing I’ve ever seen running was a deer, which leapt out in front of me…I nearly crashed sidelong into the poor thing! Also multiple rabbits and squirrels often come out to play…once I saw a weasel as well. The local cats also love to watch me run: I’m a never-ending source of amusement for them.

    I don’t know exactly what they are but the ‘chucks’ are simply adorable.

    I have yet to try the melted banana trick as I actually have a total phobia of cooked banana (ack, it’s the texture!)…however, I am intrigued…maybe one day I’ll summon up the courage to give it a try 😉
