THE BIRD THREAD - Post birds, discuss birds or even sniff birds.

at least 60% of what I say to my cats is "whatcha doing"

The only thing my bird can say is "whatcha doin" and he particularly likes to say it after flying into my room (usually when I'm trying to smoke a bowl) or humping his fav perch

A bleeding heart pigeon. Both sexes have this feature, but the male's red plumage is brighter.

Love watching Juncos and Cardinals.

Have palpable hate for Starlings and Barn Swallows.

I live next to a preserve, so you see all kinds of birds in there that sometimes likes to visit the suburbs. This includes Hawks/Falcons, which are rare, but I saw one twice. Once when I was walking down the trails and it picked up something on the ground and flew away. The second time was when I was walking my dog, it flew around the entire block making loud noises actin like it was lookin for something.

Otherwise it's the usual Blue Jays, Cardinals, Crows/Ravens, Seagulls (which is a staple long island thing even if you're nowhere near the beach), those brown birds with the orange bellies, ducks (if you're at a lake/pond), woodpeckers, and those goddam canadian geese that shit everywhere when they migrate

Are those a variety of nightjar? They're like Furbies only actually cute.
