Hello everyone this is Ajay,

My greetings to you all, hope you all are doing good, This blog is about my participation in Weekly drawing contest | Draw A Duck conducted by @eliany mam in Steem kids & parents community. Today I'm going to draw a duck as per theme of the contest, thankyou for conducting the contest.

1. Pencil
2. White page note
3. Sharpener and eraser
4. Yellow stick pen , okay start

First I started with head of the duck.

Then I completed the body shape and wings also.

I draw the eyes and mouth for the duck, which made it duck.

I did some shading all over the body of duck for realistic look and I almost completed the duck .

After shading work, i coloured the lip part with yellow and it looks like adorable white duck with yellow beak.

Duck is an aquatic bird like the swan. Ducks are small, short-necked birds. They are floating birds. They live in seawater and freshwater widely. In the country, yellow, gray, black, and white-colored duck species are widely seen.

Generally, ducks live in ponds, lakes, seas, and oceans. Mostly, they live near water bodies. Ducks are being farmed by a farmer, where they are sheltered in cages and wooden houses. They often walk around on land and then spend most of the time in water; they are known as waterfowl.

By classification, chicken is a non-swimming bird, whereas duck is a swimming bird. Chicken has feet with three sharp clawed toes because it is a land-scratching bird, but ducks have feet with flat paddles, which are suitable for swimming. Duck's feathers are waterproof; chicken's feathers are not waterproof. Duck makes a sound like "quack quack." Chickens make sounds like "buck buck."

Ducks make themselves clean, which makes them tidy birds. Ducks' brains are always active, even when they are sleeping. According to their classification, ducks are omnivorous, which means they eat both living and non-living organisms. Duck eats plants, aquatic plants, carbs, fish, shrimp, grass, seeds, and fruits. Ducks are social beings; they live in flocks. Males are drakes, and females are ducks. Ducks have a life span of up to 15 years.

Yes, they are important to nature. They play a role in the human food chain. Humans are getting meat and eggs from ducks and even farming them for that. Duck meat contains a lot of iron, which is enough for a human. Iron is important to humans, where it plays a major role in blood flow. Duck eggs contain rich amounts of vitamin B12.

If they are dangerous to men, their sound will be the danger. Ducks make a quack-quack sound that is so irritating that if we hear it for more than 30 minutes, we will get mental illness and instability.

Yes, I will. Ducks are cute and adorable to have. If I have a chance to have a pair of ducks, I won't deny it. The way they look, walk, and run is so adorable.
