EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph taken in the 1930s, the quaint streets of Stavanger, Norway, play host to an unexpected procession. A mother duck, leading her adorable brood of baby ducklings, confidently strides along the cobblestone road, much to the delight and amusement of the local residents. The family's leisurely stroll through the bustling town has drawn quite a crowd, with pedestrians and shoppers stopping to marvel at the sight. But this wasn't just any ordinary walk for the duck family. Accompanying them on their journey is a police escort, ensuring their safety as they make their way through the busy streets. The officers, dressed in their formal uniforms, proudly escort the family, adding an extra layer of charm and humor to the scene. The mother duck, with her determined expression and regal posture, seems unfazed by the attention, while her tiny ducklings follow closely behind, taking in the sights and sounds of the bustling town. The cobblestone road, lined with quaint shops and buildings, creates a picturesque backdrop for this unique moment in Stavanger's history. This photograph, captured by The Roseries Collection / Mary Evans Picture Library, is a delightful reminder of the unexpected joys that life can bring. It's a humorous and heartwarming snapshot of a time long past, and a testament to the enduring charm of Stavanger, Norway.
