I’m afraid that this new favorite of mine might have contributed to the confusion 🤔
Apparently also never seen any waterfowl.
Love language jokes!
In French, poules is chickens, and said roughly the same as pool. So there’s swimming poules in a swimming pool.
Is this the chlorinated chicken I keep hearing about?!
Is there a bird too dense to just float?
Like I think penguins even float don’t they?
Most birds can float because they have hollow bones and waterproof fearhers, making them pretty buoyant
Not sure about density, but birds that aren’t adapted to water don’t produce the oil and don’t have the interlocking feathers to trap air and make them float very well. And you’ll find plenty of rescue videos of birds struggling to get out of water they’ve accidentally ended up in, e.g. owls, pigeons.
