sounds like we need to talk more about how any social movement going forward needs to be modeled on the behavior of these magpies you speak of

Note that the apparent aggression displayed above is purely defensive, and only carried out after the chicks have hatched but before they are old enough to leave the nest. Australian magpies cooperate to remove tracking devices: https://www.birdlife.org.au/afo/index.php/afo/article/view/2247 They also hate drone perverts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96tdcJq72yc

magpies rule, you just throw a couple unsalted peanuts to them when you walk around the neighbourhood and soon enough you'll have friends for life got two who will run up to me and eat out of my hand, it's great. their idiot babies come along too, so i know they feel safe around me.

Cross Posting fr the Gen X thread:learnincurve posted:This is exactly what happened to land Brunell gifted to our town. Total shithead boomers on the council voted turn this amazing park into a golf course that “everyone can use” and then proceeded to build themselves a club house out of public funds and charge thousands a year in membership fees to use it. The real kicker is that they say the public can pay a fiver for 18 holes but you have to go in to the clubhouse to pay, and yeh, you have to be a member to walk in that door. That is some sweet, sweet Guillotine material

I’m trying to make friends with crows but idk how to attract any to my yard. I bought a bunch of stuff websites say they especially like (including a type of cat food) and have a 5-station stand on the way to try a variety of stuff. I even bought some bird feeder puzzles to put there so only smart birds will be able to get the food and the dumb ones will be left out

there are so many squirrels and chipmunks around here that anything on the ground would be gone before a bird could get to it, and there’s a lot of sparrows and some other bullshit bird species idgaf about either. there’s crows around but they’re a lot rarer to see than other birds

My 7 week old was starring at my phone so I showed it to her because we’re trying to get her to touch things and through smacking at it with her little hands she ended up playing a video about school shootings from CNN, which made me think of this thread
