Description: Set along Louisiana's Bayou Teche, Wood Duck Diary blends poetry and personal reflection to chronicle a journey into the hidden world of nesting wood ducks. The author and her husband install a camera-equipped nest box. Through setbacks and successes, they witness the unfolding drama of the hatching season. Utilizing the tanka and haibun forms written in English and French, the author captures the beauty, wonder, and quiet lessons of nature, from nest building to the ducklings' final leap on Jump Day.
