<\/p>\nOkay, so this is supposed to be an anime blog. Theorectically. But sometimes there are more important things in life than anime, such as finding out the identify of this duck-like bird that has been catching my attention every time I walk past it on the way home for the past few weeks.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So anyway, I’ve been meaning to take a few shots of this bird for a while. It’s the only one of its kind that I’ve seen around my neighbourhood. I don’t think anyone is rearing it but somehow it’s been surviving perfectly fine, even though I’m pretty sure there isn’t much to eat other than grass.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It can been seen strolling leisurely under the MRT train tracks in daytime, doing absolutely nothing. I’m pretty sure it can’t fly.<\/p>\n
I happened to have a camera with me today, so I took the opportunity to close it for a few shots. Unfortunately the duck(?) thingy detected my presence almost immediately and broke off running (if you can call it that)!<\/p>\n In fact, it ran across the road in record time and happily settled itself down right between the two traffic directions.<\/p>\n I could feel its gleeful stare as it mocked me from its safe zone.<\/p>\n I considered setting up an ambush back at this side of the road, but decided that it was a waste of time As you can tell, I fail at biology. Could anyone out there please tell me what kind of bird this is? Is it some kind of duck? If it’s a duck, what kind of duck is it and why are its legs so long? Okay, I just wasted five minutes of your life, didn’t I?<\/p>\n . And here’s Haruhi cosplay<\/strong> to make up for it!<\/p>\n See, now this post is anime-related. :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Okay, so this is supposed to be an anime blog.

\nYou can’t really tell from this picture, but I swear it was running!<\/p>\n
\n“In your face! Stupid human!”<\/p>\n<\/p>\nand the bird probably doesn’t taste good anyway<\/strike>. I kept my camera and left the bird to enjoy its daily stroll in peace. I’ll get you next time, stupid duck thingy!<\/p>\nIs it edible and tasty?<\/strike><\/p>\n
