Spring has come to the duckyard. Drake, the Mallard Duck, and
his long suffering partner, Ida, await the birth of a new brood,
but the clutch seems to contain one inordinately large egg this
year.
Sure enough, it cracks open to reveal an ugly chick nothing
like his siblings, who makes a strange honk sound instead.
Ida warms
to him, though, and takes him out for the first swim on the
lake, finding him to be a prodigious swimmer. |
