Last week, amazingly, we saw a duck and six tiny ducklings walking across Marion Street into a garden on the west side of Marion Street behind the old Zehenders building, just south of Chicago Avenue. I can’t imagine where they were hatched — pretty far from the river. Wonder what will happen to them? Trailside Nature Center says to leave them alone, of course. Would it be worth a story if someone located them?
