Steve Haywood's your man!!

I was with him on Justice a few years ago when I caught him talking to ducks 
from the side hatch.  Suddenly there was a shout of "Look what I've got" and 
I turned to see him nestling a duck in his arms.  Apparently he had until 
then frequently been able to scoop very young ducklings out of the water, 
but on this occasion it was a fully-grown duck.

The duck was of course released, but I have the feeling that this was only 
on account of a ready supply of oranges.  He claims that he honed his art as 
a service to ducks  -  a duck, once caught, will never allow itself to be 
caught again.
