We have a `scsnowman` package but we don't have a `ducks` package, that's quite inexplicable since ducks are [frequently used on TeX.SE][1] (e.g., samcarter had to fall back on `\PHdove` of `phaistos` package [here](https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/344842/101651)).

I'm not an expert, nevertheless, I'd like to create a `tikzducks` package, similar to `tikzpeople`, but I need your help in order to create a customizable duck!

Requirements: 

 - I'd like to have a `duck`, not something a bit like it (ducks with a human body are NOT accepted)
 - wings are mandatory
 - from the look of the duck, it should appear cleary that it was
   created with LaTeX, not with other commercial tools.

Possible color-keys for the duck:

 - body 
 - head 
 - wings 
 - eyes 
 - beak.

Possible optional add-ons:

 - hat
 - sport tools (e.g., cricket bat)
 - male/female versions
 - a seasonal version
 - a Chinese version
 - a cook version (not cooked version)
 - a mathematician version.

As shown in Ulrike Fisher's answer, `tikzpeople` package has a beak feature but it doesn't allow to change the body of the image, so we get a person with a beak (quite ugly).

Loopspace pointed out that there is already a [`ducks` package](https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/63759/101651) but it doesn't allow to change the style of the duck (like `tikzpeople` does for people) and it is not yet present in CTAN. 

Moreover, I'd like a style similar to this example of the seasonal version:
