An old video of a duck feeding fish from its own food bowl is going viral again. Posted by Erik Solheim on Twitter, the 32-second clip is winning hearts on the internet.
The undated video shows a duck standing on a crate filled with fodder kept over a water body. The duck decided to pick up grains from the container and dip it into the water for the fish to feed on. Soon, a school of fish was spotted huddled together eating the grains.
The caption of the video reads, "In a world where you can be anything, be kind."

The video has collected a whopping 2 million views on Twitter. The clip amassed over 2,500 likes and 398 retweets so far. Many users explained the duck's behaviour. A user wrote, "The reality is that all ducks dip their food in water to eat, the fish are trying to steal its food."
Another user wrote, "To eat/swallow the dry grain the duck needs water, when adding water it loses a lot of grain that the fish eat. It is not feeding the fish as a goal."
The third user commented, "Nature is wise and incredible. This is the type of thing I like to watch on the internet."
The third user wrote, "beautiful.. no words can express this natural love and emotions."
A user asked, "So much to learn from other species. How did we land up on top of the pyramid?"
