We had eggs hatch. We are on the migration route, near a traditional wildlife area and it's Spring. So yesterday there were 11 ducklings and a mama in the pool. The mother was in and out of the pool and the babies couldn't quite jump high enough to get out. I laid down a ramp of sorts of a foam pad that they could climb out on. But they were having none of it. Probably stank of humans or they were told the tale of Hansel and Gretyl. . . or, schufferin' soucatash, thought I was just another Elmer Fudd.
Anyway, I also put the hose on into the pool to raise the water lever so the jump was more within reach. Later when I went out, all were under Mama's wings like when they were eggs and Mama was looking at me like "SSSSShhhhhhhh! Don't wake them! I just put then all to bed!"
Anyway, the look in her eye was not this strong as in your wonderfully emotive painting. But if dad was around I think he might have used your pic as a calling card.
Good one, Enug!
