Rip Testes posted:I feel like I'm losing my mind seeing the geese still around the pond when I'd like to think in years past they would have migrated for the winter. I was puzzled the other day as I saw a group of geese flying north and shrugged it off a bit thinking it could just be some of the geese I've seen around lately... that maybe shouldn't be here right now. The answer is actually cooler than that - there are two geese "civilizations", you could say, and one type migrates while the other prefers to stay in place. The sedentary type were greatly reduced or exterminated by humans during previous eras, and by the mid 20th century many people believed that the giant Canada goose was entirely extinct. In the years since then, habitat that favors sedentary geese has greatly expanded (since geese can digest grass, the proliferation of lawns, parks, and golf courses has been a godsend for them) while the habitat that favors migratory geese has been disrupted. Geese also don't have an instictual route for migration; it's all learned on the wing. As it gets harder for them to complete the migration, many of them abandon it altogether and their fledglings never learn the route.

SixteenShells posted:wouldn't it like... really gently caress up the foundations of a lot of buildings if you had a foot of subsidence within a decade? I know it's a general thing across a whole region but surely it's not going to be a uniform drop in every patch of land Yeah, for a great preview of what subsidence can do to foundations and infrastructure, look at the stuff in Russia, Alaska and northern Canada that's built on now-melting permafrost:
