Photo by Meade. The white duck/goose head shape pops as the dark beak and the true head shape recede.I asked Grok if there's any writing on the topic of this head-shape camouflage on the sandhill crane and it "searched extensively" and told me that I seem to have made "a unique observation." How can that be, with all the birdwatching that goes on?! I can't believe it. The fake head marking is so obvious!

What do you get from cross breeding a sandhill crane with a mud hen? A Loam Duck
Golf course ‘aerator’…
Someday there will come along a sandhill crane that can pass for a swan.
A crane that identifies as a swan that are crane exclusive. Cranephobic? #DucksToo
A duck, no. A goose, perhaps. A clip here, a tuck there, an amendment to complete the simulation.
This is a beautiful photo. Thank you Meade.
They want to be seen as a goose or duck, but then when they open their mouths....
It takes more than a shapely head to make a goose.
