There seem to be a lot of statues of naked women in KC. It's art, sure, but somebody (not those creationists obviously!) seems to have the right idea. Anyway, beats hell out of Washington on his horse and other Bostonian efforts (including a monument to the discovery of ether and a bronze mother duck and ducklings from the children's classic "Make way for Ducklings"!)

Hey, I *like* "Make Way for Ducklings"!

It's in the Boston Garden. Kids love to "ride" the scaled up bronze ducklings and "Mrs. Mallard."

Just how big are these "ducklings"?

The ducklings themselves are about twice the size of adult ducks and Mrs. Mallard is proportionately larger.
