My step-father and I were on our way to the library on wednesday and while we were sitting at the intersection, we saw a mother duck and her 5 tiny babies walking in the middle of the road. They tried to cross through traffic and the mother got a good knock under the car but managed to stand up and fly off. Two of the babies got squashed and the others just started panicking. My step-father got out of the car and scurried the three remaining babies over to side of the road. I don't know if the mother ever came back to take care of them or what ever happened to them. Either way it was a sad sight to watch.
