Ducking below

MICHAEL COONS/The Acorn BOTTOMS UP-Three mallard ducks take a dive while looking for food at the pond at Oak Canyon Park in Oak Park. One mother duck and a single file of ducklings were recently observed trying to cross the 101 Freeway on the northbound 101 just before the Reyes Adobe Road exit. A loud and repeated honking of the horn sent the waterfowl scampering back to the greenbelt.
