American Wigeon by Ron Louque

Fred's Anecdotal Note

1993 LOUISIANA

A territorial fight between two male American widgeons has them so intensely occupied with each other that thus far they have faired to notice the approaching dangerous menace. Having silentry lurked nearby, a huge bull arrigator is now making a slow, deadry stalk of the two battling ducks. The hand-painted cachet leaves the final outcome of the unfolding drama to the imagination of each viewer.
