I grew up in Salem.  There's been a duck crossing sign over Mill Creek for as long as I can remember.  When I was a kid I thought it'd be great to life in the house by this sign.  The creek runs right through its back yard.  I mean, ducks in you back yard, can you imagine?

I live a block away from the Oakland/Alameda estuary in California now.  I see ducks there all through the winter.  We've even had a pair of living on our street off and on for the last few years.  It doesn't get old.
