Suburban Wild: Mallards

Suburban Wild: Ducks at the Lake - Fiber Art by Loretta Alvarado
My husband and I were sitting out on the patio at our favorite lakeside restaurant. These two ducks were wandering from table to table looking for a handout. We did not oblige. But they kept posing for me so I took a bunch of photos. Here is the image I used as reference.

This is the first of my "Suburban Wild" series. This series is all wildlife in the suburban area around where I live.

This piece measures 11" x 14" and it is mounted on a wood base that is finished and ready to hang.

Print on demand reproductions are available here:
