[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Aylebury Ducks on Hammonds Pond Carlisle

I couldn't put these on TN as they are domestic ducks so thought I'd share then on here.

Some Notes...

The Aylesbury duck is a recent addition to the duck family, bred mainly for its meat within the last 200 years. The breed was developed by the Weston family of Aylesbury and is now farmed all over the world as the quality of meat obtained from the breed is particularly high.

The Aylesbury duck is the heraldic emblem of the town of Aylesbury, lent itself to the best bitter of the Aylesbury Brewery Company and to two pub names in the town. Its plumage is almost invariably white, with a pink or orange bill and either orange or (rarely) black feet. It is also the largest known breed of domestic duck.
