Ten automat do sprzedaży paszy dla kaczek znajduje się w Parku Kościuszki, przy betonowym mostku łączącym Kępę z lądem. Ma on klasyczną formę niewielkiej, zielonej maszyny, z której po wrzuceniu monety 1zł, wylatuje specjalna karma dla kaczek - niepaczkowana.

Na automacie napisane jest "nie samym cheleb kaczka żyje nakarm ją tym, co najlepsze". To hasło ma zachęcić ludzi do korzystania z automatu, jednak przekaz jest trochę mało wyraźny. Karmienie kaczek chlebem realnie im szkodzi. "Chleb zawiera bardzo dużo soli, której ptaki nie powinny jeść, gdyż prowadzi to do zaburzenia gospodarki wodnej ich organizmów. Poza tym szybko chłonie wodę i łatwo pleśnieje." (https://www.pgk.zamosc.pl/aktualnosci/szkodliwy-chleb-czyli-jak-wlasciwie-dokarmiac-ptaki/)


This duck feed vending machine is located in Kościuszko Park, by the concrete bridge connecting Kępa with the mainland. It has a classic form of a small, green machine from which, after inserting a 1 zloty coin, special food for ducks - non-packaged - comes out.

The slogan on the machine reads "a duck does not live by cheb alone, feed it the best". This slogan is supposed to encourage people to use the vending machine, but the message is a bit unclear. Feeding bread to ducks actually harms them. "Bread contains a lot of salt, which birds should not eat, because it leads to disruption of water management in their bodies. In addition, it absorbs water quickly and moulds easily." (https://www.pgk.zamosc.pl/aktualnosci/szkodliwy-chleb-czyli-jak-wlasciwie-dokarmiac-ptaki/)
