A Pennsylvania district attorney led a sewer grate rescue on Sunday to save seven baby ducklings.

Stacy Parks Miller, the DA for Centre County, got involved when she was driving past a country club and noticed a frantic-looking duck, the Centre Daily Times reports. Upon closer inspection, she noticed the ducklings underneath the grate.

Golfers and a nearby officer helped lift the grate cover, and Parks Miller jumped inside. Four of the ducks were quickly rescued, but it took longer to reach three others that were inside two holes. The whole rescue mission lasted about an hour.
