My new vape is getting delivered today but perhaps I should keep smoking instead. Much easier to gaslight my boss by flicking cigarette butts at him. Much to consider

I've been trying to get a picture of them for a while but they're very skittish compared to the squirrels that don't give a gently caress, or the crows that are too big and keep knocking the feeder off the window.

I tried when I see one when taking my dog on a walk but they just get into arguments with me where we have a vaudeville fight as they caw, I ask what's up, caw, want shiny?, Caw, take shiny, caw, just take the shiny, caw fly away from the top of my mailbox

I did see one crow in an open garbage can flinging stuff out of it for a couple other crows. They've also learned that cars will stop for them so they casually walk out into the street for stuff and just stare you down when you're driving straight towards them.

you always want to make friends with the crows, because they remember you. you don't want antagonistic crows

Who are you to glizzy gobble El Vago's marshmussy?

That reminds me of a study I saw about crows in traffic. They found that crows that were run over were overwhelmingly hit by trucks. Best guess is that crows can warn one another about caws, but not trucks.

I need to get some pictures of the lizards that started showing up around outside my place a few years ago. I still don't understand why Ohio has lizards, but they're apparently doing quite well.

the advice i got for canada geese working with an ornithologist was to counterintuitively look them in the eye and face your body toward them as you pass. for swans, she said nothing works

(Not an ornithologist) Swans are nice and their babies are adorable and if you get them used to you feeding them, they'll bring their babies for you to look at (and feed). That said, God himself can't help you if one of them gets pissed off at you, swans are like horrifying horror movie things that start out adorable and friendly and then BAM they decide you need to die.

sadly yes, i imagine. one of the tourists dropped a beer in the vltava which is the greater loss.

i want to train the swans to attack those dumb motorized scooters. then the revolution will finally happen.

swans in the Commonweal books are deeply amusing. they were weaponised by rogue magicians millenia ago and they are the size of rhinocerouses

unrelated, all the Shadowrun games just showed up on gamepass. do not play shadowrun returns but do play dragonfall and hong kong
