Chippy's Ducklings Hatched!




We couldn't believe it when a duck decided to nest in the the middle of the wood-chip pile outside the Arboriculture area (can you spot her in the photo above?!)
She must have picked it because it was warm and comfy but with all the goings on (students, chainsaws, tractors etc.) we didn't hold much hope of any succesful hatchings. We named her 'Chippy' and put up signs asking people to try not to disturb her. And 1 month later...............



.........this is what we found this morning!
