Hey @TheMerl, here’s a quacking duck that’s got to be at the top of the bill
It’s a cosmetics container made around 1300 BC in ancient Egypt https://t.co/XJPetqlnRQpic.twitter.com/CU1N0iMuLD

The Museum of English Rural Life issued a challenge Friday on Twitter. They specifically called out the British Museum and asked for their best duck. Yes, duck. It took a while for the British Museum m to respond, but plenty of other institutions got in on the fun.
We’re not @britishmusem but here across the pond we have a bird that is quite duck-like! https://t.co/eYGKog10bppic.twitter.com/nZyKVLKrKY

The response to the J. Paul Getty Museum’s contribution was “Have you ever seen a duck?” But other places had ducks.

This is the kind of thing the internet was made for. You’ll see a lot more museum ducks of all kinds in the Twitter thread. -via Everlasting Blort
