It's certainly not an evolution-directed development, as ducks aren't 
normally in spaces where echo/non-echo sounding is necessary, I would 
like to see a scope of the wave-form...

I did a quick google on the phrase "Fractally Reverse-Palindromic 
Soundwave" and also quite a few variations, with no relevant returns 
-- I am thinking this is a joke anyway.  A palindrome is a linguistic 
term, and fractal geometries are not described in terms of that low 
level of Cartesian symmetry...
