UNION CITY, Calif. -- On Easter weekend we expect to find eggs in odd places - but not the birds themselves!

Alameda County Fire's Engine 32 came across ten ducklings trapped in a storm drain in Union City Saturday.

In the end, all the ducklings were reunited with their mother and released in a nearby creek.
