The feathers of a few ducklings were ruffled Tuesday night, May 2, as they fell into a storm drain, but a rescue performed by Saxonburg Volunteer Fire Company put them back in a row.
According to Christopher Dean, chief of the company, a 911 call was made for the ducklings from the parking lot of Concordia Lutheran Ministries on Marwood Road.
“Staff was walking down the road and saw them,” he said. “They said there was a (mother duck); she flew away when people started coming around.”
