Duck Duck Gay Duck?

The other night a drake mallard was sitting on my sidewalk next to my back door. I approached slowly, wondering why he was there (no bodies of water in the immediate vicinity), and as I got closer he got up and slowly walked away from me. Very casual. Suddenly the bushes next to my house burst into rustling and another drake mallard shot out and skulked rapidly around the corner. I got the very distinctive feeling that they both looked furtive, guilty, perhaps even sheepish (can a duck look sheepish?) But I didn't ask and they didn't tell. I'm just wondering how my backyard became a hot spot for ducks of an alternative persuasion.

Hey, when the other ducks are not accepting of ducks who are different, they are forced to hide their love 'under a bushel'. Maybe your yard showed up on some gay duck bbs as being a 'cruisey' spot ;-). Better check the restroom walls of your local park... hehe
