Possible definitions for waddler

adder
Any of several venomous snakes of the viper family (Viperidae) and the death adder, a viperlike elapid. Vipers include the common adder, puff adders, and night adders. Adders occur in Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia. They range in length from 18 in. to 5 ft (45 cm-1.5 m). The puff adder of Africa and the death adder of Australia and the nearby islands are particularly venomous, with a bite often lethal to humans. The name is also used for other snakes (e.g., the hognose snake).


saddle
Seat for a rider on the back of an animal, usually a horse. The leather saddle was developed between the 3rd cent. BC and the 1st cent. AD, probably by peoples of the Asian steppes, where the stirrup and the horse collar also originated. The saddle greatly improved a rider's ability to control a moving horse, especially in combat. Improvements made in medieval Europe were related to feudal battles among knights. Modern saddles are mainly divided into two types: the light, flat English or Hungarian style used for sport and recreation, and the sturdy Western style used originally for cattle roping and now also for recreation.


warbler
Any songbird of almost 350 Old World species (family Sylviidae) or about 120 New World species (family Parulidae, see wood warbler). Old World warblers, found in gardens, woodlands, and marshes, have a slender bill adapted for gleaning insects from foliage. They occur mainly from Europe and Asia to Africa and Australia, but a few (e.g., the gnatcatcher) live in the Americas. They are drab greenish, brownish, or black and 3.5-10 in. (9-26 cm) long. See also blackcap, blackpoll warbler, gnatcatcher, wood warbler.
