Six Little Ducks

Watch our Easter ducklings hatch.

The rangers initial plan was to incubate, hatch and rear native British Ducks for visitors to enjoy, but due to Covid guidance and the park being closed, Ranger Mike took the duck eggs home and is now the proud father of six rather cute (if we do say so ourselves) little ducklings.

Ranger Mike documented and showcased these fantastic animals by providing regular updates on their progress and the pitfalls of raising six needy ducklings.
