Animal symbolism
Duck
What the tradition holds
Read as staying steady on the surface while a good deal happens underneath.
Where that reading came from
The image comes from the paddling, which the water hides. It is a metaphor people invented and then attributed to the duck.
Worth asking whether you are the duck or the person watching one and assuming it is calm.
