"Duck: A Selection of Game and Natural Beauty" Discover the enchanting world of ducks as we take you on a journey through various locations, showcasing their charm and diversity. Monnow Bridge and Gate over the River Monnow in Monmouthshire, Wales, United Kingdom, provide a picturesque backdrop for these elegant creatures. Chesapeake Retrievers, Curly Coated Retrievers, and Irish Water Spaniels eagerly await their turn to retrieve game alongside these magnificent ducks. As we shift our gaze to Noss Mayo near Plymouth, England, an idyllic view across the water reveals the harmonious coexistence between humans and nature. Mallard Ducks gracefully glide across the surface while adding splashes of color to this serene scene. Muscovy Duck ducklings steal hearts with their adorable presence. Their fluffy feathers and playful antics bring joy wherever they go. In Flanders on Long Island in New York, The Big Duck stands tall as a symbol of this area's rich history in duck farming—a testament to its significance. Bray near Maidenhead in Berkshire showcases another facet appreciation—Finchingfield's tranquil atmosphere invites us to pause and appreciate these feathered friends amidst lush greenery. Across the Atlantic Ocean lies Boston Public Garden where Nancy Schon's "Make way for ducklings" sculpture captures both children's imaginations and adults' admiration for these beloved creatures. In Hessen - Germany, a pair of Mandarin Ducks elegantly swim on a lake surrounded by breathtaking landscapes—an exquisite sight that reminds us how nature can create moments of pure beauty. Finally, Vernon Ward's artwork titled "Family Tree" encapsulates the essence of unity among ducks—a reminder that family bonds are cherished not only by humans but also by our avian companions. Ducks truly captivate us with their gracefulness, playfulness, and ability to bring people together through shared admiration for their natural beauty. Let us celebrate these remarkable creatures and the wonders they bring to our world.
