Make Way For Ducklings

I love Boston's public gardens.  One of the iconic sites in the gardens is the set of Make Way for Ducklings statues.  What I love most is that the ducklings are often decked out in cute garb to celebrate the season.  You may remember this duck from the winter and my post on sparkly things.  


Around the Super Bowl all the ducks were decked out in these tee-shirts that I didn't really understand at first.  Then Paloma told me that it was a reference to Patriots player Rob Gronkowski.  


Recently there was this incarnation in honor of Easter and the beginning of spring, which I think is the most adorable to date.


And then on Marathon Monday the ducks donned these capes and masks.  The capes spelled out 
M-A-K-E    W-A-Y-!


The fact that the costumes stay on the ducks for so long is testament to how much Boston residents respect and enjoy the ducks and I can't wait to see what the rest of the year has in store for me and the ducklings!
