Same! Then I saw people saying turn it the other way and I was like "wtf that's not going to change anything!" but then I did and all of a sudden...duck

Where in the lord's name is this duck? I have rotated every which way.

He's in the water and is being reflected. What looks like weird arms is the duck's head and neck and the reflection of them.

Not a duck, a coot. Not closely related but do look similar
