Yes, a cucco riding the ground.
While I was thinking about the 101% route for AA, I found a timesaver for my any%. It's a way to get into the llama temple in Angry Aztec without playing the Barrel Blast course:
This allows me to save time in a few places:
1. Not doing the Barrel Blast, watching the cutscene afterward, or shooting the switch.
2. Not needing to buy Baboon Blast in Jungle Japes. I can do all of DK's Cranky shopping in Crystal Caves.
Because I need to be Diddy to do this trick, I will do everything the same as before in AA up to playing the guitar. I'll then go through the cave and perform the trick. I'll have to tag DK inside the llama temple; unfortunately, this loses about 20 seconds. I tested shooting the coconut switch with Diddy because there are a few switches in the game that show one type of shot but work with other types, but the one next to Lanky isn't among them. Since DK will be missing his 3 coins in the cave linking the two main areas, I'll get the rainbow coin behind K. Lumsy, which will enable me to skip Diddy's 3 underwater coins in JJ, 2 of Diddy's coins next to his Kasplat in JJ, Tiny's 3 coins next to the dirt mound in AA, and DK's 2 coins next to the llama cage in AA. I've updated the route to reflect these changes.
