Shoebills aren't ducks, they're large African wading birds related to pelicans and herons (and strongly resembling storks).

Still, the avian connection is amusing, albeit unintentional. I made Shoebill the bass player because I thought it was the most fitting position for someone who looks so intimidating (doubly so because Shoebill doesn't mean to be intimidating).
