The haiga editor’s comment:

Cat gives us a lot to think about. Her haiga are very resonant with wonderful photographs that interactively compliment her haiku. The thought that “black ducks” can lead you home is something intriguing to ponder. One remarkable aspect of her haiga dwells in her methodical approach as to where she will place her haiku on the photograph. Wonderful and traditional, her haiga will have a lasting place here at Simply Haiku (in this case Simply Haiga!)
