It’s understandable. Virginia copied all our great cities names.

Well, I'm glad you asked that. When you di, I got the magnifier out again and it turns ou it too is a duck. I had always thought it was a forest scene of some sort with a tree trunk to the left and a plant to the right. Turns out it is oriented longitudinally and is a duck taking off over what appears to be a swamp scene.

You'll have to give me a little leeway here. I had cataract surgery on both eyes over the last few weeks, and i have made some real visual blunders over the last few years. My vision is now much, much improved but I have just today recieved a new prescription for the modified eyeballs so within a week or two I may have normal vision for the first time in a long while.
