Ducky The Goose

I have a customer living out in the Tetonia sticks, that I’ve been transporting for years. She’s part of a great family and they have the typical menagerie of animals on their nice spread of land. A horse, dogs, a cat I think, and a goose named Ducky.

The younger daughter Molly found an abandoned bird on the Teton River this spring, at the Packsaddle bridge. It was yellow and scruffy, and they brought it home of course. Mom called it Ducky because it, well, looked like a duck.

As it grew older it started becoming too homely to be a duck, and it turned out to be a goose (of unknown sex…) that is now a member of the family. Pretty cool :-)
