not knowingly
the duck badge is a holdover from SCA armory. SCA name is Anne-Marie l'Amasseuresse (the woman who puts things into piles), and the armory registered with the SCA is three ducks....in a row. Fortunately, there are lots of examples of birds being used as badges and symbols in 15th century heraldry so I tend to use that rather than the SCA arms, which while cute, are not very authentic... --AM -------------------- "Let Good Come of It"

AM, Where can I see the "3 Ducks" badge? The name "Bourette" (from my grandmothers side) means "A small group of Ducks" and the livery is: 3 Ducks. -------------------- Geoffrey Bourrette
