When the Water was Low – Wood Ducks – 21″ Round Clock
Some mornings feel ordinary—until they aren’t.
The water had dropped low at a quiet East Texas lake. Fallen trees, usually hidden beneath the surface, reached skyward in twisted silhouettes. Then, as if called by something unseen, nearly 100 Wood Ducks arrived. Brilliant flashes of emerald, chestnut, ivory, and sapphire covered the exposed timber.
Cory James McLaughlin and his son Henry just happened to be standing there when it unfolded.
He hasn’t seen it like that since.
Now, that rare alignment of nature and memory is captured in a stunning 21″ round clock that does more than tell time—it holds a moment.
🕰 Where Time Meets Story
This isn’t just wall décor. It’s a conversation piece.
Printed directly on wood using high-quality, fade-resistant inks, the natural grain subtly enhances the warmth of the scene. The rich tones of the ducks and weathered timber feel alive—almost as if the birds might lift off at any second.
Large 21-inch diameter makes a bold focal point
Wooden base for natural texture and depth
Precision quartz movement for reliable accuracy
Requires 1 AA battery (not included)
Produced exclusively by Wild Wings
Dimensions: 21″H x 21″L
🎨 Why It Captures Attention
The brilliance of the Wood Ducks contrasts against the soft stillness of exposed timber and reflective water. There’s motion in the flock, yet calm in the composition. It feels like dawn. Like cool air. Like quiet conversation between father and son.
Every glance at the time becomes a reminder:
Of mornings spent outdoors
Of memories shared with family
Of nature’s once-in-a-lifetime displays
Of how quickly moments pass
🦆 Perfect For
Lake homes and cabins
Rustic or lodge-inspired interiors
Wildlife and waterfowl enthusiasts
Meaningful gifts for outdoorsmen
Anyone who treasures stories behind the art they display
This clock doesn’t just mark the hours.
It preserves one.
Because sometimes when the water runs low… something extraordinary rises to the surface.
Image Notes
This was another special day with Wood Ducks not long after Bird Haven. The Water at our local lake near my house in East Texas was especially low and the fallen trees were exposed and for some reason about 100 Wood Ducks decided it was a good day to visit. My son Henry and I just happened to be there that morning. I haven’t seen it like that since.
