Oh, good call! Possibly also a double pun, per Voragh's note that
"parpar" is the Spanish equivalent of "quack".
This inspired me to look up any "Nash"es related to birds:

And I found: Clarence Charles Nash, long time voice actor behind
Donald Duck. Although I still didn't find any connections to digging
up bugs to eat. (Did Donald Duck ever do that? I thought about
"Bugs" Bunny too but that's a different studio, and his enemy is
Daffy.)
I feel we're getting close to solving this.
