sage for granny posting but i love sitting at my window and watching my feeders! It's truly one of life's pleasures. It's very hard to pick a favorite visitor, but nuthatches are up there! In the summer I'll occasionally get a visiting gray cat bird, and they're so nimble and magnificent. I also can't help but adore the spunky attitude of blue jays… I always get whole peanuts just for them!

This plug may function as a filter or may hold fish bones in the stomach until they can be digested. The parents even feed feathers to their chicks to get the plug started early.

This is one of the pelicans that lives in St James's Park, London England. To quote Atlas Obscura:

"The colony of disturbingly large, but friendly, birds include five Eastern Whites and one South American White. Pelicans were first introduced to the park in 1664, a generous gift from a Russian Ambassador. In 2013, three of the five Eastern Whites arrived as a gift from the city of Prague, joining the descendants of the original Russian flock."

Female birds may be more drab (it helps them when they’re sitting on their eggs, to camouflage) but it’s important to remember that they are the sexual selectors. They are responsible for the beauty of their male counterparts. If the male birds could mate without being colourful and beautiful, without doing an elaborate dance, they would.

Actually the one I immediately thought of is the only non-ceramic bird in my collection lol—I have a little glass "blue bird of happiness" that I love so much because it was given to me by my parents, and it had sat on our kitchen windowsill my entire childhood. This isn't my picture, I'm not entirely sure if this is the same bird as I have no idea where or by whom mine was made (currently away from home so I can't photograph it) but this is nearly identical. It's so round!!!

same anon but my family had a lot of ducks as a kid it was weird, we had lots of animals, guineas and chickens too and just lived in a normal house right next to downtown and one or two hat these silly little puffs on their heads, so cute. smaller than what you see in these pictures but i think it's the same thing going on, whatever causes that i guess. the oldest duck i ever had was like that, her name was Curly because before we knew if they were male or female we named 3 of them Curly, Larry, And Moe. then Curly and Larry started laying eggs. anyways Curly was cool because she had the silly little puff and would chase people down to bite them.

My daughter love birds and will happy squeal and giggle at any bird she sees. I always take her to bird shows and she starts giggling and laughing and one of the bird show birds waved at her and the speaker even called it out it was so cute. For her first birthday I brought her a few bird feeders and patio chair so she can sit out and watch birds

When I was 13 years old, I found this parakeet (like picrel) outside of my apartment building. I put up a bunch of signs because I thought maybe he flew off someone's balcony but nobody ever called. My mum and I ended up keeping him for a few months while we tried to find someone who was willing to take him and give him a good home. I like birds, but I don't like how they live for like decades, it feels like a really big responsibility. Anyway, after like 3 months I ended up teaching him a bunch of words and then we found him a good owner! Now he's living his life with other parakeets and having fun. That's my bird love story.

I'm jealous of birds in a way. I like that for the most part all the girl birds are plain looking but all the boy birds have to look amazing and dance or sing and do all that to impress the girls so they can become their boyfriends. I wish it was like that for humans. Why can't human scrotes be bred for looks and dancing abilities or songs?? It's gay I hate humanity.

Cockatoos are the cutest fucking animals ever. I am a parrot autist and it makes so mad how I can't live in australia and be woken up by cockatoos and lorikeets screeching on my balcony. I hate living in the midwest. We actually had a parrot species endemic to the US found in the midwest called the carolina parakeet, but it was hunted to extinction because humans fucking suck. My copium is that they live in small pockets of isolated parts of the US and they've adapted.

No. 2153823

>>2153810
I have had the same thoughts but I think if I lived in Australia I would get very sad if I inevitably stumble upon a dead cockatoo or lorikeet. Sorry for the morbid thought but at least parrots in the USA are more likely to be pampered in captivity and not struggling in the wild.

No. 2153857

>>2153810
>The Carolina parakeet was bold and gregarious and was often spotted flying around in exuberant flocks numbering hundreds of individuals in lowland old-growth forests, forest edges and canebreaks that sprang up around rivers. Unfortunately, these rowdy parrots became the focus of the destructive tendencies of recently arrived European settlers, who razed their habitat to build cities and farms, and persecuted them mercilessly in retaliation for dining on crops of fruits and grains, as well as to collect their feathers to decorate fashionable ladies’ hats, and who even shot them out of the sky simply for the perverse pleasure of killing something wild and alive and beautiful.

I immediately suspected it was for their plumage

I'm an aussie and you're unlikely to just see dead cockies and lorikeets lying around kek (especially if people are keeping their cats indoors like they're supposed to). Both sulphur-crested cockatoos and rainbow lorikeets are far from struggling btw and have adapted very well to urban areas. A flock of up to 15 sulphur-cresteds visit my yard regularly to get a drink, eat some nuts I put out for them, and just hang out, with a couple interested in being 'friends' with me (perching near me, taking food from my hand, talking to me), and it's really cute when parents 'introduce' their chicks to my garden and me kek. Other parrot visitors that are less common are galahs, corellas, yellow-tailed black cockatoos, king parrots, crimson rosellas, and gang-gangs.

Best birds are the maggies though, adore their song and lately a male and female come visit together to take food from my hand and sing to me. Currawongs are also excellent but they rarely ever visit, same for the bronzewing doves. God I love birds.

Could live without the rainbow lorikeets though to be honest, if only because their incessant racket sets off my pet birds like nothing else kek (and they are absolute bullies towards other birds despite their small size). Kookaburras could also please politely fuck off and stop eating my pond fish. okay sperg over.
