The giant rubber duck is back in Hong Kong waters, a decade after its debut in the city.

This year's exhibition, titled ''DOUBLE DUCKS," will feature two inflatables standing at 18 meters tall -- among the tallest in the world. This morning, they departed from a dockyard in Tsing Yi and ''swam'' for around two hours.

The ducks were masterminded by Dutch artist, and from 2007 onwards, they've been exhibited in Australia, Brazil and more.

It first made an appearance in Victoria Harbour in 2013 and stayed for several months. It was seen by close to 8 million people, capturing the attention of local residents and tourists alike and prompting a wave of selfie fever.
