Onlookers were left astonished by the sight.

“Not something you see everyday," Jubb wrote on Facebook when she shared the video on Thursday.

Meanwhile, in Matlock, Derbyshire, 25-year-old Beth Windle shared images of ducks perched on the arms of submerged benches and swimming up to nibble at bushes now within their reach at her local park.

“The flooding is the most severe that I've known it, in my 25 years living here," the illustrator told the PA news agency.

“The ducks were probably very happy now that they've gained a new height advantage."

In a later tweet she posted: “Update on the ducks…it's their home now."

In Lincoln, Chelsea Foster said she was “shocked" to see swans swim up to the wall at the bottom of her garden from an overflowing River Witham.

“I didn't realize how high the water actually was until I went out and there was a group of them right next to my wall, they were that close I could touch them," the 23-year-old told PA.

“Outside my wall we had a little island area where we could sit and feed the ducks, now you can't even see it."

Dr. Oz Slammed For Tone Deaf Health Advice For Americans On Medicaid And Medicare

Dr. Mehmet Oz—now the administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services—was criticized after he offered Americans unsolicited health advice during a Fox News appearance, saying that Americans shouldn't "eat carrot cake" as millions face cuts to their government-funded health insurance.

The passage of President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" will cause 17 million people to lose valuable Medicare and Medicaid coverage. Under the bill, individuals earning just above the federal poverty line would be required to start paying out of pocket for certain Medicaid services, such as doctor visits and lab tests.

California Democratic Senator Adam Schiff fired back at President Donald Trump after Trump accused Schiff of "possible mortgage fraud" in a Truth Social post—prompting Schiff to point out that Trump's attack is another attempt to take attention away from Trump's association with the late financier, pedophile, and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

Trump, without citing evidence, said Fannie Mae’s financial crimes division found that Schiff had a “sustained pattern of possible Mortgage Fraud" that involved misstating which home Schiff used as a primary residence, allowing him to secure a cheaper mortgage.
