One of my favorite parts of Boston is the
Make Way for Ducklings statues at the Public Garden.
These little bronze ducklings delight children and adults alike.
All lined up, following their mommy duck. Just like the story depicts.
After my last trip down to say "hi" to the ducks, I walked towards the Esplanade and the Charles River.
It was so fun to see, there in the river basin, a family of ducks.
7 little ducklings and their duck parents, swimming along.
8 ducklings in all, just like the famed
Ducklings.
Make way for ducklings, indeed!

I have only been to Boston once. I was 7 months pregnant with my third, barely could walk and I took my middle son to see the ducks. It was his favorite book as a little guy and it was so much fun to see the statues! I bought a beautiful watercolor picture of that scene and it hangs in my baby's nursery. What a wonderful park. I have such good memories of my visit!!! By the way, always love your posts and photos.
Ahhh I LOVE baby ducklings, they are so cute!
Love both sets of ducklings ~ they are so adorable :D
Perfect combination of images. Adorable.
Love that book, and these images are adorable. Love that the daddy, I assume, is with the little family. I can imagine small tots playing with the statues.
The photos of the brass ducklings do indeed delight this adult. And the real duckling family too.
Ah, The Public Gardens and one of my favorite places as a child with my grandmother ~ Lovely photography and the real and bronze ducks are wonderful! ~ Enjoy.
Thanks for 'visiting' ~
Oh I love watching ducks, feeding duck and seeing your photos of bronze or live ducks!
I love those statues - how wonderful that you came across a live family as well. Sometimes life imitate art, sometimes it is the other way around - chicken or the egg in this case?
So cute - I know these little ducklings. I love that the real ones mimicked the bronze!
I would love to see those statues! we have the book, a gift from a friend who lived in boston! and I love the baby ducklings!
:) Gee, this made me smile. What's not to love about Boston? It's such a great city.
