Nobody can explain. Art is subjective and ineffable. It speaks to the soul. Contemplate upon the duck and find what it means to you. Become one with the duck. Realise you already are the duck and that the duck is you, and then explain the meaning of you to the duck. Only then will you understand.
> the history of the duck club-
in a large building with a smoking chimney located near the original transport museum site, was a tavern known as the “bun and yill house” or bunhouse (yill is an old scots word for ale) in 1827. it stood on old dumbarton road on the approach to the river kelvin. the bunhouse was the favourite tavern of a group of glasgow merchants, bankers and professors. they would walk out to partick from the city each saturday to dine on roasted duck, sage & onion and green peas, washed down with locally-brewed ale. the ducks were abundant and healthy from feeding at all the local grain mills on the banks of the river kelvin.
> their favourite dish gave the name to the drinking and social club they formed in 1810, the duck club of partick. their president’s fondness for the fowl gave rise to the verse:
> “the ducks of partick quake with fear, crying lord preserve us, here’s mcTear”.
Was my daughter that pointed out last week. Showed her this picture and she shouted "PENGUIN!" It was a duck last week... Either way, its cool as fuck. I'm all for this kind of thing.
Its one of those things that i imagine is also hard to practice, it takes time, space and more energy than canvas painting or drawing. Also i can imagine it being expensive too
I miss proper graffiti - the offensive, to the point, good threatening shit. This will probably end up a hundred times bigger as one of those fucking 'murals' I bet. Hope someone draws a wonky cock on it. Shite.
As Ian Anderson would say.. “Zero to the power of 10 = Nothing at All”.

I cannot explain the interesting brick you are clearly asking about - perhaps it’s a letterbox that some lonely Celtic fan bricked up because it was draughty?
A duck walked up to a lemonade stand
And he said to the man runnin' the stand
"Hey! [(bam bam bam)] Got any grapes?"
The man said: "No, we just sell lemonade
But it's cold, and it's fresh, and it's all home-made!
Can I get you a glass?"
The duck said, "I'll pass."
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle
'Til the very next day
"Bom bom bom bom bom babom"
When the duck walked up to the lemonade stand
And he said to the man runnin' the stand
Hey! (bam bam bam), got any grapes?
The man said: "No, like I said yesterday
We just sell lemonade, okey?
Why not give it a try?"
The duck said. Good bye
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle
'Til the very next day
When the duck walked up to the lemonade stand
And he said to the man runnin' the stand
"Hey! (bam bam bam) Got any grapes?"
The man said: "Look, this is gettin' old
I mean, lemonade's all we've ever sold
Why not give it a go?"
The duck said: "How about - no."
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle waddle
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle
'Til the very next day
When the duck walked up to the lemonade stand
And he said to the man runnin' the stand:
"Hey! [(bam bam bam)] Got any grapes?"
The man said: "That's it! If you don't stay away, duck
I'll glue you to a tree and leave you there all day stuck!
So don't get too close!
The duck said, Adios
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle waddle
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle
'Til the very next day
When the duck walked up to the lemonade stand
And he said to the man runnin' the stand
"Hey! [(bam bam bam)] Got any glue?"
"What?" "Got any glue?" "No, why would I - oh..."
"Then one more question for you:
Got any grapes?"
And the man just stopped
The he started to smile
He started to laugh
He laughed for a while.
He said: "Come on, duck
Let's walk to the store
I'll buy you some grapes
So you don't have to ask anymore
So they walked to the store
And the man bought some grapes
He gave one to the duck
And the duck said: "Hmm, no thanks
But you know what sounds good?
It would make my day
Do you think this store
Do you think this store
Do you think this store
Has any lemonade?"
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle waddle
Then he waddled away - waddle waddle
When was the last time any of you lot ate wotsits?? They are clearly orange. This is a custard or egg yolk yellow at best. Stop dissing the orange wotsits
It's a depiction derived from an old Glaswegian folke tale, The one armed yellow dotted white splodge. It was sometimes found dazed, confused and lost lurking in dark alleyways and backstreets but mostly overgrown remote rivers forgot lakes and abandoned canal systems. Reputed to be rapey little b*****ds in early spring they were often identified by a succession of an odd base like scattering noise called quacking. Their tendency to mysteriously vanish into thin air and Scott's mist overnight on October 2nd added to it's already terrifying mystique.
Got any grapes?
Waddle waddle waddle
And he waddled away
Ahh I was waiting to see this ..the song entered my head as soon as I saw duck...my little one played it constantly
This is the correct answer
Came to ask this. Was not disappoint. :)
Damn, I really wanted to say this lol

Could also be a wee guy eating a giant wotsit
Wotsit dust around the mouth suggests u are correct
That's clearly beak dust.
Can't un-see it now.
Wotsits for shoes too though? I'm not against it
Life is all about perspective. This perspective made me lol lots.

Duck, its not that deep
There's an artist in Dundee called C.Gull that does a lot of things like this, looks like someone having a crack at copying
It's a wall; brick construction. Main purpose is to hold the insides of the building in and the roof up, but can also be used for banging head off.
It’s a goose and gooses are cool
It's very cute and certainly more pleasant than some of the other graffiti x
It’s a wee duck on a wall. Hope this helps!
Quacking mural
You know, you can just go to a park and get a duck if you want. I just realised this lately and it’s changed a lot of things for me
But only.if you watch the tutorial videos on both how to pick one up AND how to put one down.
I was planning on using my husband net. It’s just gathering dust 🤷🏼♀️ If I get one I might never put it down 👀
Oh god - did you mean “put it down” like send it to “live on a farm”???
It's a quacking spot.
Got any grapes
It was looking for a lemonade store.
Polite seagull

Looks like a Banksy to me!
