A local wildlife photographer from East Calder reunited nine ducklings with their mother after they narrowly avoided a quack-tastrophe trying to cross the Main Street.
Mark Begg saved the Mallard ducklings after being alerted to their precarious attempts at crossing the Main Street in East Calder; they were in peril of being flattened into duck pancakes in the Sunday traffic.
Local women first spotted the family of ducks trying to cross the road - chasing them away from the busy main street and into a nearby garden before calling Mark Begg to come to the rescue.
