In a world of uncertainty, this is a feel-good story of LIFE.

On Saturday, there was a frantic mama duck who had lost her 9 babies in a storm drain. A young girl was on the scene to help. One Pasco Fire Department crew was able to respond to help the young girl tend to the young, lost ducklings.

What a heartwarming real-life story, just in time for Mother's Day. Thank you, Maya!

This hits close to home as there's a couple of ducks hanging out in my yard.

Matt (or Milo) and Millie are a long way from the river. I worry about them constantly. They haven't had babies yet, but I'm on the lookout every day. I wonder if they're looking for a place to lay eggs. I love how he watches out for mama.

Please watch out for these ducks as they cross our busy streets.
