Duck riders ahead!

I spotted this hilarious sign while driving through the area recently! It's repeated in the opposite direction too (minus the horse rider warning). On close inspection, the rider has been added in retrospect using a carefully cut black sticker which, to the artist's credit had the rider in the sitting position on the duck - and has been there for some time by all accounts. Flash photography taken on the day of the sign seems to imply that at some time in its past, it had previously been a school warning sign but there was really no evidence of that to the naked eye...
