I stole this off Facebook from my friend. The reason I stole it is because I just think it looks really cool:
I have never actually seen the Long Island Duck in person. It is a hope of mine that one day, I, too, will see this fine sculpture. In the meantime, my only view of it is in photos that others have taken.
No, that is not anything disgusting hanging off his nose. Those are icicles, plain & simple. And oh, look – Larry (the photographer) seems to have drawn some graffiti in the shape of a heart on it. Let’s just hope he doesn’t get arrested for defacing a Long Island Landmark.
Seeing the duck has made me want to go on a quest. When the weather gets warmer, I have decided I am going to take photos of strange things in NY (& anywhere else I may wander) and post about them. If I don’t know the actual history of any particular item, I will make stuff up. Heck, I think I might make stuff up, anyway. The time is quickly approached to whip out that camera.
