Three ducklings have been rescued by firefighters after getting stuck inside a drain.

Crew were called to Curtiss Lane, Weston Turville, close to Aylesbury, at about 07:55 BST on Monday.

Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service said it used "small gear" to release them safely.

They were left in the care of Tiggywinkles, the Haddenham-based wildlife hospital, the fire service said.
