 <description>
  
 <![CDATA[Crews had just returned to the firehouse from a boat call when a local area resident stopped to report that three ducklings were stuck in a storm drain at Light Street and Hoffman Drive.&nbsp; Chief 20 (Snyder) and Attack 20 with 5 responded.&nbsp; Residents had rescued one duckling prior to FD&nbsp;arrival.&nbsp; Crews assessed the situation and determined that the best approach was to attempt to flow water down the drain pipe to the next storm grate and catch the ducklings in a fish net.&nbsp; Firefighter B. Smith placed the booster line from the Attack in the pipe and began flowing water.&nbsp; Within a few minutes Firefighters M. Koppenhaver and G. Crosby made a grab and placed the second duckling with his sibling in a box.&nbsp; The third rescue proved to be a bit more challenging as this duckling found a hiding spot in the drain system.&nbsp; Crews attempted to bait the duckling with his siblings, but he would not cooperate.&nbsp; Crews called for Tanker 20 to support operations with more water.&nbsp; Additional water was slowly added to the drain and the duckling moved from its&nbsp;hiding spot to higher ground and was captured in a net&nbsp;by Firefighter B. Smith.&nbsp; The ducklings were&nbsp;placed in a box and moved&nbsp;to&nbsp;the side yard in&nbsp;an attempt to bring the mother out.&nbsp; After about 5 minutes the mother duck flew from a neighbors yard and landed next to the box.&nbsp; The box was placed on its side and the mother duck&nbsp;placed her ducklings in a&nbsp;row and moved off into the brush as a happy family.&nbsp; Other personell assisting at the scene were Firefighters T. Miller, V. Heckert; 2nd Asst. Chief C. Hardy; and Social Member K. Ibberson....]]>
