TWO small animals had a lucky escape last week after they were rescued from a storm drain.

An independent financial advisor from a Sleaford Money advice service heard their cries for help early on Thursday morning.

Cheyanne Donnelly who works at Money Minder on the corner of Boston Road, heard a chirping noise as she returned from collecting the company’s mail.

She said: “I looked around and couldn't see anything but it kept happening.

“That's when I looked down at the drain and saw one of them down there.”

There were two baby ducklings caught in the storm drain.
