Maldoror posted:Alex's last words were to his owner. He said, "You be good, see you tomorrow. I love you." We have some bird drama in my neighborhood now. The White-tailed Kites that like to hunt near my freeway exit had three babies fledge at the beginning of the month, but the father disappeared right around that time. I've been stopping off with a camera on the way to and from work when I can to keep tabs on them. The mom was hunting constantly to keep them fed, and has kept two of them alive. On my last visit, one of the fledglings was caught a vole on its own, so I think they're going to be alright. Mom giving a vole to one of her children. A juvenile misses the vole with its talons and face-plants into it. One juvenile returning to the perch with a vole after its sibling has already eaten.

Truck Stop Daddy posted:beautiful birds: His bitterns look way too dignified. To fully appreciate that bird, you have to see it being the bizarre, stretchy muppet-heron that it is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdAF7B4lT7Q

Ooh, I love Green Herons. They are excellent tubes/extendbirbs. They are incredibly shy, though - we have them around, but I usually only catch glimpses of them before they hide in the willows. Black-crowned Night Herons are neat, too. Their courtship is basically showing off how handsome of a poofed tube you can be, then rubbing beaks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lz8TVWHww1k
