If a birb attacked me and then stupidly remained close enough for my slow arm to grab I'd probably crush it's throat. I have some issues.

I am a big fan of the feral chicken population that lives on the Hawaiian islands. Coming from the Midwest where we mostly deal with squirrels or pigeons in the city, feral chickens were awesome. They were not at all aggressive either. They just poked around the periphery and picked up scraps. It’s also hilarious to see a chicken sprinting along a white sand beach in Honolulu for some reason. Probably because all the chickens I see in Wisconsin are fenced off

No one thinks that geese are unstoppable murder machines. What they are is extremely territorial and common in many urban environments.

Owls eat plenty of other birds so they can be left to the end.

Teleologically speaking, owls are not birds, they are cats.

Birds are generally pretty clear about what is pissing them off and the problem is usually dumb humans not paying attention to them when they are telling them to gently caress all the way off. I have lived with a parrot for 20+ years and life got a lot less bitey when we all learned to read her " I'ma bite you if you don't stop being a bitch" signs

It got louder and hissier and I just thought if I didn't give it the reaction it wanted it would back down. Nope.

I was assaulted by a crow who divebombed me when my head was turned, only some time later I figured out it was triggered by me staring at it with sunglasses on. Birds see "large eyes" as a challenge.

The way that snake goes crazy fast and hard at the fish really makes me cringe when I think of what would happen when it gets to the top of your pant legs

The fact that's pre-digital era camera work is even more impressive. Getting the correct exposure on an eclipse with the concorde still visible is amazing... unless it's an old school double exposure type deal, which, come to think of it, the underside of the plane wouldnt be lit up like that at ALL in the middle of a full eclipse so yeah, i'm thinking double exposure. But still cool.

dpack_1 posted:The fact that's pre-digital era camera work is even more impressive. At the altitude the Concorde cruised the atmosphere scatters light back on to the aircraft, so it's not unreasonable to have that lighting. The picture was taken from Boeing's NC-135 and if they were going to edit the picture, I'd expect they'd edit out the reflection and distortion from the window it was taken through.

I'm going to assume that's from when the concorde chased the eclipse for like 15 min or something and the plane had been modified with science equipment to capture a bunch of data.
