Water Babies
Coloured pencil; Image size: 5.5"x9.5"
One spring I came across a
clutch of newly-hatched ducklings, motherless and peeping at the
side of the road.
I waited to see if momma duck was nearby but some calamity must have befallen
her because she was nowhere to be seen.
I scooped the brood into a cardboard box
and took them home for safekeeping. I was enchanted by these little
fuzz
balls during their over-night stay with me before being delivered into the care
of a local wildlife shelter.
