Yes. I live in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. On Friday morning (January 23, 2009) I saw in a pond along the Oregon Pike several ducks that were frozen in the ice. Today (Wednesday, January 28, when I went by the same pond, the ducks, five or six of them were still there, either frozen in the ice and/or covered with snow. Obviously they were dead.
Ducks have bills but if there is a mutation some ducks could be born with misshapen or missing bills.

Ducks typically sleep in sheltered areas near water, such as reeds or banks. In winter, they may seek out more protected environments, like dense vegetation or brush, to stay warm and safe from predators. Some ducks may also roost on the water, where it's less likely to freeze.
If ducks were to disappear from a wetland, there might be an increase in the population of certain plant species that ducks feed on, leading to potential overgrowth and changes in the wetland's ecosystem. Additionally, the absence of ducks could impact nutrient cycling and seed dispersion, which could alter the overall biodiversity and health of the wetland.
How about a damaged hatch on a plane carrying a special cargo of frozen ducks which then escape out the hatch... Or on a more plausible note, freak strong upwards drafts resulting from strong storm cells are able to suck large objects up to altitudes higher than Mount Everest. This recently occurred to a German paraglider who was flying in NSW Australia. Miraculously, she lived to tell the tale - of partially awaking semi-frozen after reaching altitudes of nearly 30000 feet, while she was blacked out. Had she been accompanied by a flock of ducks at the time of being inhaled by the storm... could it be possible for frozen ducks to rain down from the sky on release from the storm? Or, some ducks are flying in the sky then get rained on then go to the north pole and accidentally freeze then die in flight again causing there to be frozen duckies!:-)
Well, Julie's estimate was 40 ducks, so the smallest number of ducks she could have seen is 40. Unless she's hallucinating or can't count, but let's give Julie the benefit of the doubt here. So, yeah, 40 ducks it is.
