I know WB, you've been very busy helping to resolve PC issues. Our online PC 'tecky guy' grin

Last week we were staying at Warners Gunton Hall. We had a suite with two rooms. MrsP asked me to answer her mobile phone which was ringing, her ring tone is a duck quacking --- it wasn;t her phone it was two ducks in the living room !. The lake was nearby. The following morning we were woken by two ducks pecking at the window.

If you google "urban myth bird sound" you will find it.

Ana Wed 09-Nov-16 21:27:19

I'd never heard of the urban myth - the only clue I was responding to was the lack of tunefulness one!

Wobblybits Wed 09-Nov-16 21:25:31

Been multi tasking, trying to sort some PC problems on another thread.

Sincere apologies, I missed the duck, and the answer was a ducks quack. Well done Ana for Duck and Linsco for finding the urban myth that a ducks quack does not echo.

Linsco56 Wed 09-Nov-16 21:06:33

There's a myth about a duck's quack not creating an echo but ana said duck earlier.

Linsco56 Wed 09-Nov-16 20:58:37

Urban myth involved
Noisy bird sound
Not a bird of prey
Not a cuckoo
You haven't replied to nanaK's "some type of waterfowl?"

Wobblybits Wed 09-Nov-16 20:45:38

I've already said no to cuckoo

notnecessarilywiser Wed 09-Nov-16 20:29:13

First cuckoo of the year?

Izabella Wed 09-Nov-16 20:22:38

Must have the wrong specs. I read this as twenty questions constipation

Wobblybits Wed 09-Nov-16 20:22:22

Not bird of prey.

Good Point Ana, read the original clue in full.

Some type of waterfowl?

Linsco56 Wed 09-Nov-16 20:18:42

Is it a bird of prey?

Ana Wed 09-Nov-16 20:17:28

Think we're losing sight of the urban myth aspect now! grin
