"anatidaephobia
the fear that somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you (coined by Gary Larson, The Far Side)"
A note on the above quote from the highly astute tsuwm's catalogue of words:
When you search anatidaephobia on One Look Dictionaries, tsuwm's is the only one that lists anatidaephobia.
I'll suggest another he may choose to add to his catalogue, one created just for him:
anatidaffobia: the fear that somewhere, somehow, a well-know Looney tune duck is watching you.
Quacked up,
WoodDuck
PS: What do you call those whistles that make duck, turkey, and nightingale sounds? Are they just called duck calls, turkey calls, and nightingale calls?
