Ducks, Donald and Daisy, return to their favourite pub with their baby ducklings

 Aww ... I couldn't resist sharing this story.

Two ducks who became regulars at a local pub have returned to their favourite watering hole with a brood of ducklings.

Donald and Daisy have been popping in to Sinia's in South Shields (North East England) for a bite to eat for the last two months and even got into the habit of pecking on the window to get the staff's attention.

Just recently, Daisy returned to the pub - but this time she had a family of six ducklings in tow.

Landlady Sinia Jawzi said the parents must feel safe to bring their "adorable" offspring to the pub.

She first spotted the pair outside the bar on Prince George Square and gave them some food and water.

She now feeds them organic duck food and said the babies loved to eat mealworms.

The new arrivals have also been given names - Daphne, Daffodil, Delilah, Dewey, Dixie and Daffy.

Jawzi said that she had hoped Daisy would bring the babies to the pub but thought it was unlikely. But, when the family turned up, she said everyone in the pub had stopped what they were doing to watch.

"They are a huge part of the pub now," Jawzi said. "As I walk through the town centre and go on public transport, people ask how they are doing."
Words and image from article seen here and do also use the link to watch Daisy and her sweet ducklings. 

I do hope you enjoyed this story.

All the best Jan
