Chased by Ducks

It was a long time ago, when I was only 9 or 10. My dad took me and my siblings to a wildlife center (in Greenbay, WI)--I can't remember the name-- and my dad bought corn in bags so we can feed the ducks. Except I was still young, so he bought one for my sister (16) and I to share. I wanted to hold the bag and I took it away from her. All of a sudden, as I was feeding the ducks, a lot of them came my way. I got scared and started running in circles and the ducks chased me. I finally dropped the bag of corn and ran to my dad. The ducks flocked around the spilled corn and I was safe from harm. Until this day, my family still teases me about it.
I always remember this because even though it was scary for me, it's something that my family and I laugh about all the time.
