Duck Creek (Brazos River tributary)

Duck Creek is a spring-fed stream that flows through Dickens and Kent counties in the U.S. state of Texas.

Duck Creek rises 7 miles (11 km) northwest of the small town of Dickens on the eastern edge of the Caprock Escarpment in northwest Dickens County[2] and generally flows southeasterly where it merges with Cottonwood Creek at a downstream distance of around 11 miles (18 km).

Continuing in a southeasterly direction for another 7 miles (11 km) the stream passes to the east of Spur, Texas, where it merges with Dockum Creek.

At a point between Spur and Girard, Duck Creek merges with Camp Creek, then begins flowing west before curving to the south, passing just to the west of Girard.

At a point about 8.5 miles (13.7 km) south-southwest of Girard, the stream terminates at its confluence with the Salt Fork Brazos River in Kent County.
