A Woman Sleeps Near Her Ducklings At A Monastery In Bago Township

A woman sleeps near her ducklings at a monastery, which serves as a temporary shelter for flood victims in Bago township, around 100 km (62 miles) north of Yangon late September 1, 2010.

Heavy rains caused the Bago river to overflow on Sunday, flooding towns and forcing the evacuation of some 3,000 people to temporary shelters.
