Ducks Deluxe

 

If you hailed from Aylesbury, you would already know that today (the second Friday in June) is Duck Day.

It's a local holiday, dating from 1363, celebrating the contribution that ducks made to the local economy. From their eggs (omelettes), to their meat(for stir fries) to their feathers (The Aylesbury Pillow Collective), ducks were the driver for Aylesbury's wealth.

Even their feet were used, for waterproofing deerstalker hats. No waste here.
