This is a visualization of a Japanese proverb, which means to experience a stroke of luck!
Because a duck coming to you with onions tied to its back is like a soup ready to be made delivering itself to you! What luck! A duck comes bearing onions!
That proverb is also where Farfetch'd comes from.
you're so beautifol :) may i sense you with my feelers
of course! let me just-

“Sex Change Just ‘Legal Correction’”, March 31. 1956.
Wanted to verify/thought this was interesting so I dug up some more about him!
"The day his sister said 'I think I'm a boy'," Sunday Pictorial, 01 Apr 1956
"Bridegroom was a woman months ago," The Province, 11 Jun 1957
"'Ex-science mistress' marries," The Birmingham Mail, 11 Jun 1957
Note: Two of these articles were reported in newspapers across America, Canada, and England: the first (in OP post) and the third.
Sadly, I don't have access to an Ancestory subscription right now and I can't find the birth date or death date or place of burial for either him or his wife, or if they ever had kids :( Newspapers.com results drop off sharply after 1957 so this is all I could find
If anyone does, I would love to see what you can find!! Although, based on censored information Ancestory WILL show me, it looks like he lived as Donald Bury until the end of his life :]
I have ancestry again!!!!!!!
Katherine Ainsworth Liddle Bury past away in 1977 in Congleton, Cheshire, England. She was 58. She was cremated and buried in a churchyard I frankly can't read the name of (below). She was a school teacher until she died.
[IMG ID: Excerpts of the death registry for Katherine Bury. The first column, for the district in which death was registered, reads "Congleton." The second column, which recorded how ashes were disposed of, reads: "Buried [unintelligible, potentially "HowCap"?]. Churchyard." /end ID]
She was survived by her husband Donald Oliver Bury:
Evening Sentinel, May 20, 1978
[IMG ID: BURY (Katherine Ainsworth) -- With dearest memories of my beloved Kay. I shall be with you in spirit until we meet again. -- Ever your devoted Don. (Jeremiah, chapter 31, verse 3: Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love.) /end ID]
Her husband continued to teach, eventually reaching the position of headmaster.
Don Bury passed away in a Cypress Court Nursing Home, Crewe, Cheshire, England in 2001. He was 84. He was also cremated, this time by Newcastle Crematorium. It's unclear if there is a grave marker anywhere or who would have taken his remains.
It appears the Bury's lived a private and quiet life in Cheshire until the end of their respective days -- a decision that I can't help but respect after having Donald's transition blasted in newspapers at home and across the pond.
I would also like to add that their 1957 marriage, reported on in the papers as a quiet affair, was indeed legally binding and officially recognized. This was something I was doubting because it was very hard to find documentation of!
it doesn’t have to be good it just has to be done
