Our Sympathy to

Street Ducks have returned to the Streets of Oxford.

This lonely fellow was photographed outside my house on his way to Sainsbury's for a pint of milk.

He stopped for a moment and told me that he had lost everything, his wife had run off with a river duck with a lovely mooring down on the canal, his ducklings scorn him as he has forgotten how to swim, and the board of Duck Affairs have revoked his right to quack near open waterways.

With this he sighed and waddled off, and I could any watch with a tear in my eye.

Street Ducks. Can you help poultry near you?

Contact Rights for Homeless Ducks with Sore Feet at this address, if you can offer a Duck a pond to live in, or a bird bath to rest his weary bones in. (Ducks can live in swimming pools as long as you haven't chlorinated the water)

Together, we shall overcome!
