Bonita Springs, Fla - Firefighters responded to the cry of a different "fowl" this Monday after eight ducklings became trapped inside a storm drain.

The crew who responded to the call were able to lure the ducklings out of the drain by using video sound of the momma duck calling her babies.

The ducklings were plucked one by one from the murky water and returned to the pond where the mother duck frantically waited.

Another duck, presumably the father, flew back and forth for the duration of the rescue.

In the end, all eight babies were pulled to safety and sent on their merry way.
