Duckies of the fall

A trio of fluffy mallard ducklings have appeared on the River Bure at Hoveton. They swam into Granary Staithe Dyke and delighted people walking by.

Morag from the British Waterfowl Association explains ~ "Ducks can have 3 clutches a year, with up to 12 born each time. Late ones often struggle to find food if there are early cold snaps, although they can survive."
