To the Editor:
It was a rainy and cold May 1 at the beach when our neighbor Ronnie knocked on our door. He was looking for my husband, Vic, who is the neighborhood watchman as well as Mr. Fixit! It seemed that one of our neighborhood male ducks had gotten stuck under our fence and needed “Dr.” Vic to rescue him.
In the pouring rain we ran out to find the duck completely stuck upside down under our fence. He was barely moving and we couldn’t tell if he was injured.
