Posting because everyone will soon be wanting to go feed the baby ducks

DO NOT FEED THEM BREAD, PLEASE.

Do not feed dry bread to any wildlife. Ever. It swells up in their stomach and makes them feel full so they don't bother to go find their natural food. Bread contains no nutrients whatsoever. Any animal eating nothing but bread will suffer from deficiencies.

I always thought nobody in their right mind would try giving milk to birds but it would appear some people think otherwise, especially if it's a baby bird. BIRDS DO NOT DRINK MILK. They come from eggs and do not suckle from their mother.

This is something I love to do and thank you for making us aware of this sweets.
