How many lost&found mallard babies does it take to fill a teacup?





A pair of tiny abandoned ducklings found battling against waves after being washed out to sea are being nursed back to health - in a teacup.

The fluffy birds were saved from a watery grave when they were found by passing canoeist Chris Murray. He plucked the pair out of the sea and brought them back to land in his canoe. He then took them to Pennywell Farm, in Buckfastleigh, Devon, where they are recovering from their terrifying ordeal. The birds were washed into the sea via the Erme estuary.


Well, ok but you'd think they could splurge for a brownie pan or something right? At least a bowl. I guess it wouldn't have quite the media appeal. Both are named "George" btw.
