I loved the original but this one pops even more! Fantastic job Pam!! #888808Pamela K November 04, 2004 0
Thank you Tammy, Barbara, and Diane!!Tammy: I've always felt that Wood Duck's are sort of surreal looking even in real life!
Diane: I liked the original, too, but I was really glad that John showed me what it would look like with a slightly bluer background!
