Found this momma mallard and three chicks under a tree in Brookside Gardens. Sadly, I never saw the chicks again after this sighting.

This image really draws me in. Momma duck is partially obscured by the branch, but then just enough to showing, including the eye, that it works -- and adds appeal to the image.
