i did visit the ducklings on my walk yesterday. they were wearing cute straw hats and some had a runners number on them. this one is from last year april, when they all got a cape and looked much cooler, actually!
yesyes, they get dressed up for various occassions. i think thats really nice... here you can see a slideshow of some of their other outfits.

i like it! there are also a lot of ducks in holland, but i have never seen such a cute sculpture.
People dress sculptures up in places around Washington state (Port Angeles, Seattle), but I've never seen anything quite this cute! This is wonderful!
Yes I have never seen a sculpture of a duck in the Netherlands and I don't think we dress up our sculptures. The costumes are very creative, somebody must have time to make them all.
Hah! I love this sculpture. When my daughter was young, I must have read Make Way For Ducklings to her 100 times. It is a great reminder of Boston. You should buy a copy and take it back to the Netherlands when you go, so you can read it to your eventual children.
