Maybe this story should be titled, "Duck - You may be next!" or "What tangled webbed we weave". Anyway a cute story. Brings back fond memories of a female Mallard (no, not a Gresley A-3), that I rescued with a broken wing that ended up joining my flock of chickens and brought a lot of joy to my kids as she splashed in our pond. She was a character, but boy did we enjoy the duck eggs!
