This Peking Duck Is Known For Its Peculiar "Hairstyle" (30 Pics)

Holly Mead from Pennsylvania has a lot of ducks. And no, she's not a duck farmer or anything like that. She and her family just love having them as pets! They're all lovely and nice, but one of them is particularly eye-catching. Her name's Gertrude, and she has a hairstyle that most could envy. Her hairdo, which is actually a crest of feathers, has drawn many comparisons. She's been likened to George Washington, Queen Elizabeth, Albert Einstein, and many other personalities known for their hair.

Holly told more about her beloved duck to Bored Panda: “Gertrude is my 3-and-a-half-year-old crested Peking duck. When she hatched, she had an unusually large crest lump that grew her fabulous 'hair.' Gertrude has been featured in magazines, on a tabloid cover in the UK and in a few advertisements. This all started with a photo of her that went viral. Because of her talent contracts, she lives inside and wears diapers. She also serves as an emotional support animal and frequently visits nursing homes and shut-ins.”
