Feeding Ducks

Episode notes

Welcome to another episode of My Favourite Park Bench. Today, we're feeding the ducks at the lake in Saltwell Park.

Recorded in January, when many of the insects the local birds depend on are hard to come by. I went out and fed the ducks (and swans, and other birds that came along for the meal) peas. Peas are a good snack for ducks as they provide essential proteins and other nutrients. In a prominent location within Saltwell Park, the lake always has people walking by. While recording, a curious dog wanted to get fed as well, his owner told him the peas weren't for them, though - hopefully, they got a crunchy biscuit when they got home, at least!

Thank you for spending some time here on My Favourite Park Bench.
