Welcome to Michael's Scribble Picnic! This week's theme is 'Watch Out!' I thought of doing a 'Duck Crossing', my piece is done in acrylic on red cardstock (6" x 6").
Very nice! We all must respect the crossings, human AND animal! Though one of my neighbours had a mosquito crossing sign up...I don't think I'd stop for them lol! :)
Great idea. We have watch out for turtles. I even have a sign that I put on my golfcart in Arizona - for fun. But truly our turtles get run over by cars on our country roads. And deer and moose. Lots of watch out signs. Good idea and lovely sketch. Blessings Janis PS The county is making under the road channels for the turtles to walk to .. they always cross the road to lay their eggs. Don't know why but something to research.
I love your take on the theme, Christine! We have a creek running through our suburb and it attracts ducks. Our roads can also get quite busy and I worry for the ducks and their babies. Thankfully, they seem to have a bit of traffic sense.
Cuter than cute Christine! I always stop and watch out for ducks, geese etc. crossing. Last week a car in front of us came to a sudden stop, young woman got out and picked up a turtle crossing the street! We thanked her and hoped he found his way back to a pond!
Sadly all of nature have too many roads to cross. If only everyone would yield the right of way ... but they don't so our roads are covered with road kill ... good for the vultures, but breaks my heart. This is a touching painting, Christine ...well done :)

What a very sweet road sign. I would watch out for ducks, especially a momma and her babes. Nicely done Christine.

Remember that book Make Way for Ducklings? Your sign reminds me of it. That illustrator is one of my favorites.
Very cute Christine, a sweet reminder of all those little ducklings we see in the spring.
Awww, that's adorable! I love it.
This is just perfect for the theme!
