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.
On the upside, I've never known anyone else who had even heard of Durrell.
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.
