Nature's Wisdom
"Get your ducks in a row," is an idiom that encapsulates the idea of preparing before a project begins. A worthy piece of advice, it is derived from the real-life occurrence of a mother duck leading her ducklings in single file to a body of water.
This whimsical bronze captures this process artfully, portraying the ducklings in several states of movement. Here the artist comments on the stages of preparation and growth through the use of nature's own wisdom.

Fun Duck Fact: Ducklings are only in the nest for one day before their mothers lead them into the water. They can nearly immediately take care of their own feeding as well. They belong to a class of birds called precocial. This means that they are fully formed when they hatch.
