Kappa's eating habits
For the past week I've been wondering why Kappa's water always has crud in it. Every time she eats her beak gets covered in whatever she's eating (including pellets, I have no clue how they stick to her beak). This evening I didn't get much time with her so when I just changed her food now I decided to sit next to her and read my webcomics, and I finally figured out the answer. She was scarfing down on the almonds in her food tray first, of course, and she picked one up, hopped over to the water dish, and deliberately dunked her beak (with the whole almond in it) into the water before coming back to her food dish to continue eating it. I have absolutely no clue why she did it. I've heard of this phenomenon before, but this is the first time I've witnessed it.
