The team at Groves Nurseries had an Easter treat this week.

The garden centre has been open throughout lockdown, but it wasn't until Monday that a family of ducks decided to visit and take a swim in its pond.

Charlie Groves, of Groves Nurseries, said: "It hasn't happened before.

"They spent yesterday in the sunshine, jumping into the pond.

"They left this morning by squeezing through the fence around the pond and heading off down the river.

"There were 12 ducklings and the mother duck."
