Like many pets, my beloved ducks weren’t immune to getting trapped in ordinary household objects from time to time.
One morning I woke up to hear enormous quacking from the garage downstairs, where our quackers slept. At first I thought Brown-o and White-o were simply hungry and were crying to be let out and fed. But when I went downstairs, I found them caught inside a bundle of wire.
White-o, being the more laidback of the two, simply took it in her stride. It was easy to free her when she was so calm and co-operative and immobile. Brown-o, on the other hand, was quacking as if she was being murdered. I tried to get the wire off her but she kept panicking and moving around. Finally, after many attempts, I did manage to get the wire off her.
The two then raced out of the garage and went around the house to our backyard for me to feed them.
