Believe it or not, many botanical gardens have serene duck ponds that are absolutely stunning. These ducks are a little posh—they’re used to being admired by people in sunhats. But don’t worry, they’ll still gobble down peas like they’re at a state fair.
One caveat: always check the garden’s feeding policy. Some sell special duck pellets for a dollar, which is basically the VIP ticket. Plus, you get to feel classy while a duck nibbles from your hand. That’s a core memory, people.
