Google Alert ! Ducklings Safe !
FLASH ! This just in.....
"A ROAD worker rescued seven ducklings from a drain after their mother was killed by a car. Jimmy Dickinson, 53, a supervisor from East Renfrewshire Council is used to retrieving keys from drains but he was called in to save lives after the orphaned ducklings became confused.
He sprang into action when he heard the five-day-old mallard ducks had been crossing the A736 Lochlibo Road in Neilston on Thursday evening with their mother when she was hit by a car.
The young birds were taken to Hessilhead wildlife centre in Gateside, North Ayrshire where they will be reared until they are old enough to go back into the wild."
It is Duck Shooting season here in New Zild. They are a bit wee, but they do have a lunch look about them.
