"All through the wintertime he hid himself away
Ashamed to show his face, afraid of what others might say
All through the winter in his lonely clump of wheat
Till a flock of swans spied him there and very soon agreed
You’re a very fine swan indeed!
A swan? Me a swan? Ah, go on!
And he said yes, you’re a swan
Take a look at yourself in the lake and you’ll see
And he looked, and he saw, and he said
I am a swan! Wheeeeeeee!
I’m not such an ugly duckling
No feathers all stubby and brown
For in fact these birds in so many words said
The best in town, the best, the best
The best in town
Not a quack, not a quack, not a waddle or a quack
But a glide and a whistle and a snowy white back
And a head so noble and high
Say who’s an ugly duckling?
Not I!
Not I! "
~ Danny Kaye
This little duckling grows up to be the head duck of the now famous duck religious organization know as the Quackers.
Ok they are chicks, but there's always one in the family, can you spot him?
He probably feels like I did in my childhood :(
Yesterday, I started the Easter holiday with a walk to Newstead Abbey and the lovely weather caught me out as I left my Olympus at home. However, on a day like this the iPhone does well with the light and here are 7 pictures taken on the walk.

Muscovy ducks start out cute but then they get hit with the ugly stick and get all those growths on their faces.
The Hans Christian Andersen house and museum in Odense, Denmark, is a wonderful place to learn more about the writer of the Little Mermaid, Ugly Ducking and many more fairy tales!

This morning there was a repeat of yesterday's race down the moat with all eight cygnets taking to the air. The one sitting at the back was going to end up being called an ugly duckling!
When I showed the grey 2CV yesterday, Jan said that he liked the colourful white/red variant better, because it reminds him of the 2cv in his youth, where those were student cars, DIY repaired with parts from the scrapyard.
I've altered the white one to fit his description, and even the sun came out to let me take some nice pictures.
If you look closely, you might even recognise the driver.
