Rubber Ducks

Today’s find: a duck library. A bright red metal box attached to a street sign, similar to the little free book libraries, except this one is filled with miniature rubber ducks in various shapes, forms, colors and “costumes”.

I assume the idea is the same: take one, leave one. Just with toy ducks.

I still have so many questions.

Why? Who started this? Who maintains it?

And where do people even find all these tiny ducks? I only know the classic yellow bathtub version.

Anyway, just another fun and slightly absurd moment that feels very New York.
