    Found little one in a drain

    Hello all; We're new here and are looking for a little bit of help. On Saturday I was filling up with gas near work. The area was off a very busy highway in the city, nowhere near where you would think ducks would be. Just as I was about to leave I heard a very distinctive peeping noise...
