The mystery duck

A giant duck named Greater Joy floated through the waters of Belfast, Maine, earlier this week. After breaking free from its moorings and drifting through Belfast Harbor in heavy winds, Greater Joy refused to be wrangled – even by the strongest boat lines in the area. 

🐤 A random act of kindness... While Greater Joy first gained popularity last year, it's still unknown who the duck belongs to – or where it came from. 

• "There's a certain mystery around it that still makes it unique to just see it kind of pop up, and we're all curious to see how long it'll stay," said resident Scott Smith. "It brought smiles. It brought a lot of positive conversations and feelings around having it here."
