During a stressful commute, a random act of kindness puts things in perspective when a swan is saved from certain death.

Ryan and I are constantly stopping to help ducks and swans across the street. We get flipped off and honked as we block traffic and we don't care. Ryan will even turn his car sideways to block more than one lane of traffic until the bird makes it across - often times with a line of chicks in tow. I wish more people would stop like this woman did, and I wish more people would get out of their cars and do something like the gentleman on the motorcycle.
On page 7 of this magazine there is an article about a man who got an award for saving his local ducks. We all need to be a voice for the animals like him! http://www.idamagazine.org/MagFall09.pdf
