= What are ducks? =

 Ducks are birds that are called "waterfowls" because they prefer habitats with water, like ponds, streams and rivers. They are related to geese and swans. The duck is the smallest of them all. Ducks also have shorter necks and wings and a fat body. They can live from 2-12 years, depending on their breed. Ducks have webbed feet, designed for swimming. Their webbed feet act like paddles for the ducks. A duck waddles instead of walks because of its webbed feet. = =
