Mottled Duck - Exit, Stage Meh
This is the Mottled Duck. It’s not trying to win any beauty contests—it just wants to take off without anyone asking, “Hey, are you a female mallard or just tired?”
If you want sparkle, this ain’t your duck. But if you’re into subtle browns, dependable flapping, and leaving a scene with low-key conviction, the Mottled’s your bird.
No shimmer, no dazzle, no mallard mystique—
Just lift-off and exit, all humble and meek.
Disclaimer: I love birds. All birds. Big ones, tiny ones, drab ones, flashy ones—this modest marvel included.
Okay, almost all birds. I draw the line at Brown-headed Cowbirds, the freeloaders of the avian world. Lay your eggs and leave? That’s not parenting. That’s Airbnb.
