How to use this prompt

Duckling-in-rain illustrations charm through contrast: fluffy yellow against grey puddles. Raindrops should be few and large enough to read, not a downpour that hides the bird. A puddle reflection doubles the cuteness. The 1:1 frame keeps the duckling as the clear hero. A tiny umbrella held by the duckling adds narrative, but keep it proportional.

Variations to try

Duckling with boots — tiny yellow rain boots for extra charm
Duckling family — mother duck and ducklings in a line for sweetness
