It was a duck, wearing red booties, brought by another passenger to act as emotional support for them on the flight.
Essig decided to live tweet his journey with the animal, and documented his strolls down the aisles, greeting people and ‘quacking gently’.

Chatting to the duck’s owner, Essig learned that the duck’s name is Daniel, and he was found at a garage sale.
He’s an Indian Runner duck and can’t fly, but he does like to look at the clouds:
