IIRC, "Pecked to Death by Ducks" is the title of either a short (nonfiction) story or a book by Gerald Durrell, one of my favorite childhood authors.

- jfk13 3y agoI don't recall that one, and I thought I knew Gerald Durrell's work pretty thoroughly. There is a book of that title by Tim Cahill, though; maybe that's what you're remembering?
- HeyLaughingBoy 3y agoYesss! Thank you. I'm embarrassed because I used to have that one, too :) On the upside, I've never known anyone else who had even heard of Durrell.
- bluenose69 3y agoI would have thought that lots of folks had watched the "The Durrells in Corfu" TV series (PBS Masterpiece Theatre) and then did some research on the family. I don't know whether this is available online, but I can recommend it as a pleasant programme, with lovely scenery, interesting storylines, and engaging actors.
