Honestly if I could get any pet right now it'd be a bird.
Don't know what kind, but I certainly think it'd be nice.
 
Saw a peregrine hunting pigeons the other day. If you've never seen a peregrine hunt they fly up high and accelerate to unreasonable speeds (between 200 and 250mph) and rely on the fact that they hit the unfortunate pigeons hard and fast enough to instantly kill them. It's like watching an F16 ramming a light aircraft except after the explosion (which is feathers in the peregrine's case) the F16 has the light plane skewered on its nose.

Lucce and Amore have a dysfunctional relationship - but they pine if separated.

I love Waxwings. The colour on the tips of their wings is actually a wax accumulation. Way more pretty than ear wax, that's for sure.

My fruit child, Pinot, being an extra bitey asshole due to molting and not letting me get her pinfeathers. I love this lil dipshit.
