Feed the ducks with frozen peas not bread, says Canal & River Trust
Ducks should be fed frozen peas, lettuce or grapes cut in half instead of "junk food" bread that causes algae, disease and rats, charity says
It has been a treasured family pastime for generations: taking stale, leftover bread down to the river or pond to feed the ducks.
Now, though, it appears we have been doing it all wrong.
The Canal & River Trust is this week launching a major campaign urging people to leave the bread at home – and feed ducks with frozen peas, lettuce and grapes instead.
