Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: How to win friends and influence ducks. Amanda Thomson; 3; finds the way to a duck's heart by feeding it a handful of corn and beaming on it. The scene is Etobicoke's enclosed Sherway Gardens shopping mall where the annual Macdonald's Farm is giving children the chance to see and get close to a variety of young domestic animals. There are calves and young goats as well as the ducks. Animals return to their home in Bowmanville Zoo this weekend.
