A Leap of Faith?

I watched an episode of Nature on Wednesday.  The first 8 minutes knocked my socks off!  It's about ducks.  But the first few minutes show the ducklings being born and then at day 2, leaping 70 feet to the ground from their nest. I held my breath.  I wonder if they do too?!?
See the full episode (or at least the first 8 minutes) if you have high speed internet:  PBS Nature An Original Duckumentary


I marveled at the wonder of it all. The duckling hears her mother's calls and leaps.
A long leap!  by Richard Day
 I know there's much to be learned as I ponder it all.

  1. I love the metaphor here. Very integral to my feeling too. And the duck leaping is a cute photo, haha.
