It’s exam time in University College Dublin, but student Caitríona Ní Chathasaigh was distracted from her studies by a strange sight. She was stunned as a duck jumped down from the raised cycle path on her campus walk. It was trailed by a posse of reluctant ducklings, clearly intimidated by the drop. They all refused help before eventually taking the plunge to join their mother, to the delight of the watching students. Credit: YouTube/Caitríona Ní Chathasaigh
