EFFECT: A spectator is asked to select a card from a deck of 52 cards. The card is returned to the deck and the cards mixed. Now, your psychic duck, Clairvolina is introduced. She will locate the hidden card, without asking any questions. The duck begins removing cards from the deck by pecking them out of the holder at the end of her perch.. No, not that one, not that one either. Ah, here it is... Clairvolina has selected a card, which she now holds in her beak, The spectator names his card, and lo and behold, this is the exact card selected by your psychic duck. The effect may be repeated, and this time, you cover her eyes with a blindfold, yet she is still able to locate the selected card. This is a great item for kids and adults. The presentations possible are only limited by your imagination.

I had one I picked up at an auction and thought it was silly but wanted to play with it...
Then I used it in my birthday show and the kids love it... and like the other review said the kids know you're doing it ... but they just say it because well that's what kids do... say what is on their mind... They say it and watch in awe as the duck always finds the right card...

A Classic in magic which everyone seems to enjoy.
The down side is when doing it for children they will often 'tell' you that you are operating it underneath, however kids will tell you it's only a puppet when you bring your $300 puppet out. so it's not much of a downside really.
But there are plenty of gags you can do with it.
i.e. for children I use letter cards a get the duck to spell words like CAT but spell it with a K. The kids soon will tell you it's wrong and you can get the duck to bite your finger, your nose and throw cards on the floor before finally finding the C.
For adults it's the mystery of how the duck finds a choosen card shuffled into the deck (despite you blind folding the duck)
I love this prop! So will you!
