For me, the best way to enjoy a long drive is with my radio up, windows down, and my arm hanging out of the window, and hit a good cruising speed. It makes the drive go by much faster, and helps keep me from thinking about the fact that I'm just sitting in a stuffy car for hours on end.

This isn't exclusive to humans. Dogs love sticking their head out of the window, and as it turns out, ducks are no strangers to vibing on a drive either, after a video of a duck enjoying its ride while sitting shotgun went viral on Facebook.

One such duck, named Mike, was recently rescued and is on its way from Ohio, thanks to the efforts of a passerby who saw it stranded under an underpass. While on the love drive, Mike got comfortable in the passenger seat and began acting as though it were flying.

The video has garnered over 600,000 views on Facebook and over 20,000 likes, with many viewers enjoying the spunk that Mike the Muscovy mix angel put on display. The MDRS is a non-profit that relies on donations; if you would like to learn more about their mission, you can do so here.
