Illustration: In the fenced yard of a small Japanese farm, a plump white domestic duck steps into a shallow washing basin. Its broad flat bill, compact neck, rounded body, and spread webbed feet are plainly visible. Water spills over the rim as the bird settles comfortably into a basin much too small for it.
