Gus Visser and his Singing Duck
Performing 'Ma, He’s Making Eyes At Me'.
This was filmed in 1925 by Theodore Case in an early experiment at adding sound to movies.
Allegedly the duck was coaxed into plaintive squawking each time the word 'Ma' is sung, by gently squeezing its scrotum.
Although that may or may not be true.
