Two words: Duck Parade.

One surefire way to bring a smile to anyone’s face? Two words: Duck Parade…
Patients in the continuing care wing of the University of Rochester‘s Thompson Health hospital in Canandaigua, New York, were treated to just that last week. According to the hospital’s Facebook page, a mother duck parades her new ducklings through the hospital every year.
“Every year, without fail, a mama duck chooses one of the enclosed courtyards at our M.M. Ewing Continuing Care Center to lay her eggs and take care of her babies.” “She lets us know when she’s ready to go by tapping on the glass, and this morning, it was time for this annual rite of spring.”
The duck follows the same path every year, and facility services staff use old signage to gently guide her and the ducklings through the halls.
