When a mother duck called for help, the Clearwater firefighters answered.
The Clearwater Fire Department officials say a citizen called them Monday afternoon and told them about a duck standing over a drain on Court Street and making noises of distress.
It turned out the ducklings were trapped in the drain under the grated cover. The firefighters got them out in no time, according to the Department's report.
The mother duck and six babies seem to be doing fine.
