Aucklanders are used to traffic problems but this morning it was a group of cute little ducklings that saw drivers being stopped by Police.

WeatherWatch.co.nz follower Muirie told us a short time ago that she just couldn’t resist getting a photo of the ducklings being protected by the Police car just after 9am today.

“The police car herded them across three lanes of traffic” Muirie told WeatherWatch.co.nz “took a good few minutes because they kept darting back or stopping. Didn’t see a mother duck. Everyone was just stopped watching – it was a lovely moment!”.

Thanks for sharing with us Muirie and great job New Zealand Police!

While some consider December 1st to be the start of summer the spring season, astronomically speaking anyway, doesn’t actually finish until December 21st this year.
