“If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it is a duck”.
Who are we to jump to such reckless conclusions?
Perhaps it is just a particularly confident chicken with a good vocal coach, or maybe a revolutionary new amphibious drone.
We live in a complex world where appearances, sounds, and even behaviors can be carefully curated for maximum deception.
Perhaps it’s a goose with identity issues!
So yes, when it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, feel free to call it a duck, but do not be too surprised when it pulls out a business card and informs you it is actually an avant-garde performance artist exploring themes of avian conformity.
