This evening I spotted the first new ducklings on the river this season, as always they are gorgeous. There was also a lot of Martin activity on the lower river indicating that there was some insect life available at last !
Warmer temperatures are sorely needed to get some insect life and a bit of growth, which has now started.
As always, can I remind people if they see the ducklings PLEASE DO NOT THROW BREAD AT THEM, this will only bring the gulls and Crows onto them, and in any case young ducklings cannot eat bread !
I counted 13 , lets hope the number does not live up to it's reputation this time.
Meanwhile A short vid clip below of the first rescued ducklings having a bath at home.
