Here's my birb story:

This morning I was eating breakfast when I noticed movement outside the window. I looked out just in time to see a HUGE bird swooping up into a tree carrying what appeared to be a squirrel. The birb was on the far side of the tree, so I couldn't see it. About an hour later, I went out to my car to go to work, and found that this wasn't just one of the large hawks that usually hang around here.



It was a h*ckin bald eagle! I've never seen one anywhere near my house, and this one was about 50' away. I took the picture, and quickly got in my car in case he was hungry for dessert.


Thanks to Manifisto for the sig!

I was watching simpsons at 0.75 without knowing until a scene where homer and bart were getting back massages at a hotel and the noises they were making were super drawn out like a youtube poop

I am burning candles and praying this eagle eats plenty and lives to its maximum lifespan

coolest birds i've ever seen flying are the white-tailed eagles

no wing movement, just gliding on hot air currents

The Ruff is a bird that has four different types of "male", all with totally different physical characteristics. They also have the highest levels of polyandry of any known bird. They've got straight guys, trans lesbians, and stuff we don't even have vocabulary for yet.

Also: if you're going to call T-Rex and Stegosaurus "dinosaurs", then you have to call birds dinosaurs too, because T-Rex is more closely related to a sparrow than it is to a Stegosaurus.

You wanna get freaked out by a bird, watch this and try to imagine the same behavior from something eight feet tall.

Same.



quote:

And you keep still because you think that maybe his visual acuity is based on movement like T-Rex - he'll lose you if you don't move. But no, not Velociraptor. You stare at him, and he just stares right back. And that's when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side,

People don't really think about how freakin' terrifying bird movement is.

Why stop at flightless, when you can go all the way to wingless?
