The fashionable flock marched up and down the streets of Sydney at the city's Royal Easter Show, which is attended by tens of thousands of visitors over a two-week period.
"They were pretty cool and weird at the same time," said one young girl among the astounded onlookers.
Known as the Pied Piper Ducks, they travel around the world with their own dressmaker to show off their style.
Brian Harrington, also known as "the Duck Man", also washes and irons their outfits every day.
The Easter show also features Noddy, the world's tallest horse, and a fire-breathing, car-eating Robosauraus.
