Floating alongside a sea otter apparently wasn't adventure enough. The little duck decided to bring a surfboard.
The otter seems perfectly content to let her ride along.
Wild Neighbors Collection Story
Wild Neighbors began with the animals just outside my door. I live in the Santa Cruz Mountains, where deer wander through the yard, turkeys pass the studio, and the forest is shared with countless wild neighbors. They belong here as much as we do.
And then there is the little rubber duck. A toy left behind after a child's afternoon of exploring, it becomes a curious visitor in their world—sometimes a hiker, a surfer, a fairy, or whatever the next adventure requires. The child may be just outside the frame, but curiosity and play remain.
Respect the wild while remaining curious enough to approach it.
