LOVE IS FOR THE BIRDS
BY MEGAN McCOY

Clackamas Community College’s very own power couple
can be seen waddling all over campus.
Many people have spotted the love birds, taken photos
of them and fed them parts of their lunch. The ducks
have been seen together outside of Roger Rook, by the
bus stop, outside of the community center and more.
How they keep their love alive is a real mystery, as
CCC isn’t the most romantic place.
However, according to the ducks, campus is where
they met, and this is where they feel the most at home.
“ I met him in my environmental science class back
in 200i.'He was my lab partner, and what can I say, our
love just took flight!” the lady duck said.
It seems as though they are always together; they just
can’ t seem to leave each other’s side. Although they
want people to know that they are just like every other
couple, arguments happen.
“ Sometimes she’s a real quack, but I often quack too,
so it works,” he said.
Their advice for today’ s young couples is to spread
their wings and soar through life together. They said
that doing anything other than what makes you happy
is for the birds, so surround yourself with people who
make your heart flutter.
