DUCK RESCUE



We were just walking back from the beach up by the river when we spotted a mum duck shouting to her babies who looks like they were in trouble and couldn't get to her, they were trying so hard to get up a mini waterfall and the mum was getting worried, well it looked that way!...So Pete got in the water down steep bank to rescue the ducklings they must have only been a day or two old, so tiny....He waded up the river with me holding the dogs and of course the camera! it got up to his thighs and eventually we got the ducklings to get up to the rock with the mum and so to cut a long story short she took them then to safety. I had to then help Pete up a really steep bank, we couldn't get him out so I sent a dog lead down and braced up the top to pull him out, we finally managed but it was funny, I wished I could have seen us. But rescue mission was a success!!
