Quack-tastic Hairdo - The Duck with a Crest Above the Rest!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this hilarious snapshot captured by Mark Boulton, we witness the extraordinary fashion sense of MAB-359, the white crested male call duck. This dapper drake sports a head-turning crest that is truly one-of-a-kind. But what's the secret behind his unique hairstyle? Well, it turns out that MAB-359 owes his extravagant crest to a skull deformity! As nature played its whimsical hand, a mass of fatty tissue sprouted from the back of his cranium, resulting in this fabulous tuft of feathers. And boy, does he rock it! This print is part of an incredible collection at Fownhope near Ross in Gloucestershire, UK – home to various specialized ducks and poultry. Among them all, our charming protagonist steals the spotlight with his yellow bill and captivating mutation. MAB-359 proves that even in captivity, birds can have their own wild side when it comes to hairstyles! With his small frame and snowy plumage contrasting against those vibrant feathers atop his head, he's definitely a showstopper. So let this be an inspiration for all you feathered fashionistas out there – embrace your quirks and flaunt them proudly like our very own trendsetter MAB-359! Who needs commercial use when you've got natural style?
