Artist(s): Sarah Collard (Collard Creations), Manny Wiebe – This pic blows up, nicely.
Risking sounding insensitive; I respect the mural, however, it is not my fave from 2015. I feel it was politically judged, rather than artistically judged. I have felt this, or sometimes that the art and politics are both a recipe for winning MOY. If that is the criterion, then why did the Nellie McClung Mural not winMOY 2016? I adore the mural that won, but it has nothing on Nellie and her gals getting women the vote.
I found this in a skinny lane, across Harbord Street from where I found the garages.
I did my best to capture this 3 story mural.
However, due to the narrowness of the lane, and that a fab full shot could have been taken if I had stood in the middle of constant traffic, I went with this.
This is the second mural I have found with painted cut-outs on top of a painted background.
My heart beat faster than a bird’s wings when I found it.
Dear Belén, I’m so happy you flew with Lúa and Mar to the wedding!
As promised, here are the wedding photos. Sol’s wedding dress is very beautiful!
She can’t stop showing it off!
Didn’t you just love the look on Drake’s face when he saw Sol in the gown for the first time?
It was a beautiful ceremony.
Sol’s egg was a beautiful Flower Girl, even though it is not hatched, yet.
I thought Penelopoe The Witch did a lovely job presiding over the ceremony. I had no idea that Duck Weddings were so unique.
I loved the way Penelope led all of the Ducks in a quack-off as they circled over Drake and Sol, while they made their pledges to each other.
Of course, in duck weddings, the bride kisses the groom, and it was a beauty of a kiss.
Here’s the photo from prior to the ceremony, when the Wedding Party posed for a photograph. Click on it to see the full splendor!

I know you were just as excited as I was, when after the ceremony, Sol threw the bouquet.
I remember how happy we were when Ms. Zulu caught it.
Ms. Zulu was such a doll, handing out the Wedding Programmes. She’d like to remind everyone to take a souvenir Wedding Programme. (click on Programme to view &/or download)
Here’s a picture of the Wedding Cake, taken before the “INCIDENT”, which necessitated the last minute baking of chocolate cookies.
Wedding designed and shot by Resa – March – June, 2017 – Toronto Canada
Drake offers an explanation: Another duck, who looks just like him, has moved into the neighborhood. The cats hypnotized this “other” duck into craving Red Velvet cake, due to the dark rich chocolate.
After that, Drake pleads the Fifth.
Well, I hope you like all of the pictures. Before I go, Sol wants to show you her first fitting. Although she thought the purple was a bit dark, she thought it was a gorgeous option.
