6月17日,浙江台州市椒江區鴻洲大道上,洪師傅和他的三個助手趕著5000只鴨子前往一公裡外的池塘裡覓食。行人和車輛紛紛讓路或停下觀望。洪師傅說,他經常趕著這群鴨子經過馬路四處覓食,養了大半年,一只也沒有走失過。

Ducking out: A Chinese farmer caused chaos on the roads when he took his flock of 5,000 down the road to be fed

Hungry birds: Hong brought streets in the eastern city of Taizhou to a standstill when, accompanied by a colleague, he took his animals to a pond

On the move: Armed with nothing but a cane, he guided his feathered friends three quarters of a mile as part of an annual tradition in Zhejiang province

Claims: Hong said not one of the ducks was lost in transition during the tricky duck migration

Spectacle: But motorists didn't seem too bothered by the disruption, and stopped to stare at the incredible sight

Marching army: Taizhou lies 190 miles south of Shanghai and has a population of almost 6million people |
