Make way for marching ducks in Memphis

In fact, the ducks have become the hotel’s biggest attraction, even drawing celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Michael Jordan and Jimmy Carter. Daily at 11 am, the hotel’s Duckmaster leads five Mallard ducks (one male and four females) down a red carpet to the fountain. The ducks march to John Philip Sousa’s King Cotton March as onlookers snap photos and clap. At 5 pm, the ducks march back to the elevator, which returns them to the rooftop Royal Duck Palace, where guests can also catch a glimpse of them through glass windows during off-hours.
