I am quite proud of this drawing! It took a while, but it was worth it! 
The story behind this drawing? Well...
Yesterday, me, my mom, and my younger brother were at the Pittsburgh Zoo. It was extremely hot out. We were at the elephant exhibit, watching the elephants, when a mother duck and four of her almost-grown babies waddled up. At that moment, the elephants were giving themselves dust baths, so I wasn't really paying attention to the ducks, as I was taking pictures of the elephants. Then, all of a sudden, my mom told me not to move backwards. When I looked behind me to see why, I saw one of the ducklings sitting behind me, in my shadow! It was sitting there to stay out of the sun! Of course, the elephants were forgotten at this point, because I was too busy taking pictures of the duck!
This drawing is based off of one of the pictures I took of my little feathered friend. I'd post the reference pic, but all my pictures are still on my camera! Sorry!
But I will tell you that this is a very good likeness of the photograph, so I am quite pleased with it! 
I took a lot of photos of the animals at the Zoo yesterday, so I may post more drawings of them, because a lot of them were great shots, if I do say so myself!
