I am lucky enough to live with families of ducks right in my neighborhood. My property backs onto a ravine which is home to many families of ducks. I love getting to watch the parents raise their young, the babies learning to swim, and seeing them return in Spring year after year. I feel an innate sense of protection and love for these ducks as I have often helped them crossed the road, saved their young from storm drains, and fed them to help them thrive. These ducks are my neighbors and friends and will always have a special place in my heart.
