Feel Good Friday
Hi
I was privileged to witness a touching moment today and thought I would share it.
There we were sitting in a big line up of 4pm traffic on Oteha Valley Road when suddenly a few cars ahead a young man launched himself out of the stationary car and started running between cars eventually scooping up a tiny duckling.
He then very gently held it and raced to the bushes on the road side where he carefully placed it then ran back to his car only to re-emerge moments later racing back to the tiny creature again scooping it up and proceeded to make his way across the busy road to the other side ... at which time we had to move along.
I do hope the feathered family was safely reunited and young man I salute you for your good deed it was a lovely moment to watch
It’s always great to know that people in the big city certainly do care and will help others in their moments of need.
Happy Friday everyone
