  4. I've never seen that type of duck either. Yesterday we had beautiful weather, so my family had a chance to go biking at the lake again. There were a lot of geese, a few swans, and a couple ducks; it was fun watching them.

  11. He/she looks as laid back (exhausted) as the rest of us feel. But looks much better than most of us.
