Tap to listen

The Muscovy Duck teaches Independent Roosting through a duck that does not follow every expected duck rule. Its quieter voice, strong claws, perching habits, red facial caruncles, and independent farm presence show that standing apart can still be practical. Its lesson is that independence works best when it still knows where to rest.
