When I think back to my childhood and the 80's ritual of sitting down to watch BCTV News at the dinner table with my family, one particular Mike McCardell slice-of-life news story always pops in my head, and that is one of people helping ducks cross the road. In his career I imagine he did more than one similar story, and it's something that happens every spring in every city around this province. I was thrilled yesterday to see our friends the post the video below of the ducks that were born in their courtyard. It's become an annual tradition over there that a mother duck will lands in their enclosed courtyard to lay her eggs. After the ducklings hatch and grow up a little, the mother duck "knocks" on their door to ask them to help the little fuzzies out into Vanier Park, and the below cuteness ensues.
