I hope you like guano in your shoe.

It's fine. Once the birb finishes tearing out all the lining and insole the shoe will be too uncomfortable to wear anyway.

How do they resist the natural urge to murder their young? How are these things ever bred in captivity?

Bird ladies must be even crazier than cat ladies.

why does she stick the peices of paper in her feathers? Also it looks like she is making specific shapes to stick in her feathers.

It is for carrying nesting materials. But you shouldn't let them do it unless you intend to breed them, because it makes them mean and broody. Once the female gets broody she will keep laying eggs whether she has a mate or not. So it's another one of those things that is both cute and indicates the human involved is a moron.

I got some original birb content from my trip to Beacon Hill Park a few years ago. Not a great photographer, but a birb is a birb.




The stars of the show. Bastards who steadfastly refused to show off their fancy tail fans the whole time I was there.



Here we have some sort of duck.



A duck with a cotton ball stuck to his head. There were several like this, a rare example of duck fashion trends, I assume.



What even is this? The feet say duck, but I'm leaning toward extraterrestrial visitor.



Absolute unit.


In conclusion, Canada is a land of contrasts. Also ducks.

Wait, didn't we just find a human (child) sized parrot? Where are all these giant bird fossils coming from?

i wish i could have a single unit of food bigger than my entire being

i should do some research on growing huge vegetables

The heaviest pumpkin in 2016 was 2624 pounds. But it was ugly and it isn't like you're going to just carve off a chunk and start chewing.
If you aren't a huge chonker a giant watermelon might be a better choice. The record is 350 pounds. Like the tiny birb you could just sit next to a watermelon and start eating.


Sadly I couldn't find an pictures of birds posing with humorously oversize vegetables, so here's a crow in a PET scanner.

Suddenly I am wondering how you get a job like "Raven master of the tower of London," because that sounds like a dream job.

Pretty sure you have to kill the previous RavenMaster and steal his magical sigil. It's a tough fight too, because he's protected by dozens of ravens.

I don't know what's happening there, but I love it all the same.

Water birds like to eat food wet. The food in the bowl is dry, so he wets each mouthful manually. The fish have learned birb=food so they get all up in his business to catch any crumbs he drops.

You could probably do the same thing on land with a school of unruly labrador retrievers.

Anecdotal, but I spent a summer working with a falconer who had a Eurasian eagle-owl.. Beautiful, huge, dumb as gently caress.

The vultures, on the other hand, would constantly figure out how to unlock their mews and the raven he had was the only bird I've ever met that judged me.

Only God Ravens can judge me.

I’m guessing the bird is safe because it is deer season? I wouldn’t think it would be considered cool to kill a tiny bird with a massive, compound bow...

Hunters generally aren't out there plinking at every animal they see. I suppose drunken assholes might, or people who are starving, but most hunters are out there with specific types of animal in mind.

Work on having denser belly blubber and commit to landing on your stomach rather than knees as you fall forward. You can also travel faster while sliding on your belly now if the ice allows for it.

Just shape your body into a chubby torpedo. No big deal.

I do wonder what most goons do that gets them into so much trouble with geese

i've never had problems with them and i think most non-goons just hate all the goose poo poo rather than the constant fear of being attacked

Geese were big fans 4chan back in the day and the rivalry will never end.
