WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Secret Service, which has the job of guarding the president and other dignitaries, now has a new temporary duty - protecting a mother duck and her nine eggs.

The duck, a brown mallard with white markings, has had several names suggested by Treasury Department people, including "Quacks Reform," "T-Bill," and "Duck Cheney." It has built a nest in a mulch pile right at the main entrance to the Treasury Department on Pennsylvania Avenue.

母鴨孵蛋獲特工保護 (http://full.mingpaonews.com/20050410/gxf1r.htm)

財政部築巢

【明報專訊】負責保護總統及政要的美國特工獲委派一項臨時任務 ─ ─ 保護首都華盛頓財政部大樓外築巢的一隻母鴨和牠的 9 隻蛋，確保小鴨順利誕生。
這隻棕色的綠頭鴨擇地覓居堪稱有眼光。牠把巢子築建在通往白宮的賓夕凡尼亞大道、財政部大樓正門的一條柱墩，旁邊有新種的樹木，不僅環境佳，生了蛋後還獲得特別眷顧，連財長斯諾日前也佇足探望，並獲特工保護。
