Delightful Bronze Sculptures in Boston Public Garden

A guest blog.

How about these hats?

This is a special guest blog from my friend Vincie who is visiting Boston with a dear longtime friend. Although I’ve seen the sculptures and even had a ride in a Swan Boat with my childhood friend Gail, that was decades ago!

I asked Vincie if she got to see the the ducklings to please share her photos. I’m so glad she did.

If you click the above word ducklings you can learn more about the art work from the sculptor.

Perhaps you’ve read the book Make Way for Ducklings by Robert McCloskey.

Here is information about the sculptor Nancy Schon.

  1. Those tiny hats on the bronze ducklings are absolute perfection! What a wonderful guest feature from Vincie—and I love the nostalgic touch about your own Swan Boat memories with Gail. Thank you for sharing these delightful photos, Ruth!

  2. Schòn. Once again Vincie to the rescue with an outstanding submission. I saw ducklings racing across the fairway on the golf course yesterday, so cute. dc

Thanks for your visit. It's always good to hear you stopped by.
