Lucky duck gets unstuck thanks to couple with some pluck

Duck down a chimney in Ashland

Chimneys aren't all they're quacked up to be, a duck in Ashland discovered today. Fortunately, he or she flew down the chimney in the Perrys' house, they weren't having a fire and so they spent a good part of the afternoon getting the duck out and then letting it fly away.

Put the ash collection bucket in the fireplace & was able to pry the flue door enough to drop it into bucket. Had no idea how alive it was

Guess it's time to get a chimney screen / cap...

That's a female Wood Duck. Wood Ducks nest in tree cavities (or man-made facsimiles). She was probably investigating the chimney hole as a potential nest site and it was much deeper than she bargained for. Good work getting her out - I hope she's learned enough not to try it again.

But I think you want the people sick to death of my rhymes. They're down the hall. Well, at least for my headlines.
