Watch for baby ducks and geese on the roads

Please people, slow down, watch out, and help them cross safely.

Editor: It’s spring, and many different types of baby animals are being born. This is a reminder to everyone to be aware and careful of that. The parents and young ones will appear where you’d least expect them —  often on our roads, as crazy and busy as they are.

For example, there are several ducks and geese sitting on their eggs right now, waiting for them to hatch any day. Once they’re hatched, mom and dad will march them to a body of water where they will raise them. That could be in the most awkward  place, right smack in the city.

They aren’t aware it’s across 200 Street, or such. They just have to get to water. So please people, slow down, watch out, and help them cross safely. We all share this planet, and it’s our duty. Thank you,
