2.) This is the second sweater I knitted without a pattern or graph, trying to include elements of nature I didn’t include on my first. After I made this one, I knew anything was possible. In the middle of working on this one, I knew this was what I wanted to do as a career. This sweater is not available as a T-shirt (at least not yet), but my other duck sweater is. #sambarsky #sambarskysweaters #sambarskyknitter #knit #knitting #knitter #art #artist #sweater #intarsia #handknit #mallardduck #mallardducks #mallards #duck #ducks #tree #trees #mountain #mountain #forest #forests #lake #lakes #snowcappedmountains

#MallardDuck

One of Canada's most iconic species across the country.

I spoke with a few Waterfowl Biologists including some of the foremost authorities on duck biology on many occasions and let me tell you that I cherish, or most beloved, Ducks even more. Why?

Because life for a Mallard is really not easy and once they reach adulthood, the survival is about 70 percent per year and that means the chance for a pair to make it through one year together is 49 percent. So if you keep going with that math you will soon realize the chance for them of being together six years is only a 1.4 percent

There are simply too many predators who likes to eat nesting eggs and new borns like Hawks, Owls, Raccoons, Snakes, Skunks, Fox, Eagles, Coyotes, Snapping Turtles, etc…

And lets not forget a tremendous amount of Hunters and I know perfectly well what they will say to defend themselves which is "they are an invasive species!" So as Humans on this planet and we're not hunting ourselves. But to me it is "still" an eye opener.
