Man Helps Rescue Ducklings From Sewer as Mama Duck Watches
It's an adorable story (and it makes the point that the guy who got the ducklings out is a former Boy Scout--did the reporter ask to get that info? Because I can hear the question in Miguel's voice, or Molly's: "What are you, some kinda Boy Scout?"), but I didn't start laughing until I go to this bit:
However, getting the babies out of the sewer was just Phase 1 of the operation.
Mom was determined to lead her brood across busy 159th Street, so Kane and others acted as crossing guards, coaxing traffic to literally make way for ducklings.
