A duck, who goes by the name 'Joyce', has had her seven ducklings saved from a pool and culvert drain in St Brelade.

The JSPCA called out White Watch to help with the rescue and to reunite Joyce with her offspring.

The firefighters found three of the ducklings stuck in a culvert drain.

They used nets to coax the trio to safety, who are now called Ben, Jerry and Rolo.

A further four ducklings had found themselves a nice pool to swim in nearby, so once again, armed with nets, the team helped them to safety.

Joyce stayed close by, watching over the firefighters as they saved her ducklings.

Watch Commander, Ryan says this was one of those jobs that reminded them why they love what they do.

"It might not have been flames or ladders today, but it was no less important.

"We’re just happy to help, whatever the call may be."
