Duck science

Come and join the duck trail into the beautiful St James' Park to learn some more about the science of ducks.
You'll learn about what makes ducks such good flyers, how they are able to navigate around the world so easily and why they don't sink when sitting in water - all the while gaining a greater appreciation for our feathered, fuliguline friends.
