 Near where I live there is a village pond with ducks. On rainy days (which I am assured are good for ducks) all the ducks make a perilous journey across the road to a large grassy area. This has led my good wife to speculate that ducks eat worms which rise to the surface after rain. Is this so? I had always assumed them to be herbiforous.

They are largely herbivorous, but also eat insects, snails, worms, frogs etc

we kept ducks and they love the worms and keep the garden clear of slugs (not the big fat orange ones - ugh!)
