Maybe it's just that I'm more of a city girl than a country girl, but I've been amazed at how Vietnam seems to be bursting with new life. Everywhere there are babies: human, animal, new shoots of green in every crack in the concrete and along every road. You'll hardly ever see a barren area, except on the sheerest of mountain sides, and even there you'll see a few hardy souls struggling to make it.
Anyway, I thought these baby ducks (ducklets?) were too cute not to share, especially considering their pose.
