Ethel is a beautiful Muscovy that was dropped off at our neighbor's pond by animal control who had removed her from a dangerous area with lots of traffic, but didn't have a place to house them. 

Ethel adopted us much more than we adopted her. Every morning, Ethel would fly from the pond all the way to our farm to hang out with Lucy and return back to her pond at night. 

She and Lucy were the best of friends, and always in the middle of all the action on the farm.
