No, it's no joke - firefighters rescued these little cuties from a grate on Maple Road, Tankersley at around 9.50am this morning.

A crew from Tankersley attended the incident and rescued them from around 1 ft below the surface of the road.

The ducks were happy to pose for photos before being passed to the RSPCA.
