Sometimes Twitter is so pure it melts our hearts, restores our faith in humanity, or simply gives us a welcomed giggle. This week Twitter was all about ducks as we waddled into a feathery war involving museums around the world.

Twitter loved every ducking moment of this battle.




It's time to put up your ducks. This is war!
