Australian Kestrel

One of the smallest kinds of falcons, they do not rely on speed to catch their prey (mainly that of bugs). They often hover as they hunt over grasslands, and it will sometimes rely on bushfires in order to hunt. As insects hop away from the flames, the Australian kestrel makes its move. Learn More!

Carrion Crow

The carrion crow is one smart cookie! It often said that the crow has a brain similar to that of a three year old. They are able to solve problems and even recognize humans! One study showed that they would target a certain mask wearer despite what he was wearing being different from what they originally wore when they were bothering the crowd. The news quickly spread amongst them and soon all the local crowd knew to defend their territory from this guy. Learn More!

I saw a nankeen kestrel by the ocean yesterday! Such a gorgeous bird, hovering just long enough for me to get a blurry photo. My beloved

Maslins and Blanche Point to Port Willunga…a rewarding short walk

Dear Reader: It is glorious summer’s day, not too hot and a gentle sea breeze. The view from the clifftop is spectacular. The outline of Gull Rock and surrounding shallow reefs are clear cut against an impossibly blue ocean. Inland, the view is quite a contrast with farmland, scrub and distant, low hills reflecting the dry shades of an Australian summer. Gull Rock from the clifftop Farmland,…

MOST ICONIC BIRD CALL BRACKET: ROUND ONE: KOOKABURRA vs. ALLEN'S HUMMINGBIRD

IN THE BLUE CORNER, we have a special guest that is no laughing matter. ladies and gentlemen, it's the one and only kookaburra!

this fierce competitor hails from the australian outback, where it's been honing its skills as a hunter and protector of its territory. but tonight, it's stepping into a whole new arena, ready to take on any and all challenges in the ring. and listen to that signature call - some call it a laugh, but to its opponents, this is a warning. so get ready, because tonight, the kookaburra is here to prove that it's not just a cute bird - it is a force to be reckoned with!

IN THE RED CORNER, we have a combatant that's bold, beautiful, and boasts lightning fast reflexes, the allen's hummingbird!

with the ability to hover mid-air and to move at incredible speeds, the allen's hummingbird is a master at aerial combat - and it knows it. this tiny fighter is highly aggressive and has been known to fend off birds magnitudes larger than it, including hawks and kestrels. you'll be able to recognize this bird from the loud, bee-like buzzing from those mighty wings, but you'll want to check out these vocalizations, too - a series of chirps that starts off slow, but speeds up much like an engine revving. with its iridescent feathers in the spotlight, the allen's hummingbird looks ready to take on any opponent that dares to step into the ring with it.

hi! i'm really loving icarus, you're a wonderful writer! but i just had a quick question. i love the flock graphics, and they're super helpful! would it be possible for you to maybe list the species of birds for the main 'characters' of the story as well? you don't have to post example photos or anything crazy, but i think just a list like that would be helpful too. sometimes i forget who has what kind of wings, and i think having a list so i can google image the bird would be great.

if that's not something you want to do or don't have time to do or something, no worries!! i really appreciate you taking the time to write icarus in the first place <3

Oof I might as well do a general guide! I never thought a maxiel wingfic would spawn so many specific wing allocations but here's the general list:

Paddock wings in Icarus:

Current grid:

Daniel Ricciardo - Scarlet Macaw (colourful, nimble flyers)

Max Verstappen - Peregrine Falcon (raw speed, inherited from his mother)

Sergio Perez -Crested Caracara (a type of mexican bird of prey)

Lewis Hamilton - Greater Bird of Paradise (beautiful wing plumes, lovely singer)

George Russell - Blue swallow (beautiful metallic-blue feathers, scream like madmen when they fly)

Carlos Sainz - Spanish Imperial Eagle (white epaulets, very regal)

Charles Leclerc - White Dove (need I say more? Perfect white wings, exploited because they're pretty but so intelligent in pathfinding)

Lando Norris - Lucifer Hummingbird (Small, colourful, likes to hover in place)

Oscar Piastri - Little Lorikeet (One of the smaller types of Australian parrot. Very cute)

Yuki Tsunoda - Japanese Long-tailed tit (Photos should be self explanatory. They fly like ballistic missiles)

Alexander Albon - Crested Fireback (National bird of Thailand. Beautiful dark blue and fiery plumage)

Logan - Blue Jay (Commonly found in Florida. Blue, like Logan's current posting, and his eyes)

Pierre Gasly - Osprey (A bird of prey often found near coasts along the European shoreline, and Pierre is from Normandy)

Esteban Ocon - Black Stork (Tall, gangly, also migrates through France)

Fernando Alonso - Kestrel (a type of small bird of prey, hunts by biding their time and waiting then divebombing)

Lance Stroll - Snowy Owl (Lance is cuddly ok and I didn't want to make him a Canadian goose because that's his dad)

Valtteri Bottas - Bullfinch (Look it up. The picture is self-explanatory. The manliest of men)

Zhou Guanyu - Chinese Red-Crowned Crane (A crowned crane for the champion of the universe, as translates his name)

Kevin Magnussen - Raven (Viking. quoth the raven.)

Nico Hulkenberg - Crow (he keeps coming back. As wily as many of their bird counterparts but has a bad rep for being a bad omen)

Retired drivers or drivers not currently on the grid:

Sebastian Vettel - Swiftlet (Extremely good fliers, reaching up to 160km/h and pulls insane G-forces)

Mick Schumacher - European robin (Very cute. Universally liked. Same wings as his father)

Nico Rosberg - Eurasian Sparrowhawk (a bird of prey that hunts by ambushing before a high-speed, agile chase)

Jenson Button - Northern Harrier (hunts in a high-speed flight close to the ground, exceptionally good listeners)

Mark Webber - Cassowary (look up a photo. Just look at it.)

Kimi Raikkonen - Giant Albatross (King of gives no shits, flies very long distances without a care)

David Coulthard - Bush-Stone Curlew (White trousers!)

Romain Grosjean - Red-tailed Hawk (I chose the bird of prey that could best mesh with the phoenix metaphor)

Antonio Giovannazi - White-spotted Starling (Very pretty plumage)

Daniil Kyvat - Great Bustard (I honestly don't remember why. Distributes in Russia)

Nyck De Vries - Common European Sparrow (Small. Commonly found. Unfortunately often hunted)

Nikita Mazepin - Flamingo (Need I say more)

Sir Jackie Stewart - (Clipped) Merlin Wings (Extremely fast Scottish bird of prey. In-fic, Jackie was one of the generation of drivers that clipped their wings, permanently robbing them of flight)

Team Principals and people in the paddock:

Toto Wolff - Black Swan (self-explanatory)

Christian Horner - Golden Eagle (A bit pompous. Matches his hair)

James Vowles - Magpie (Utterly clever, not from any particular prestige)

Fred Vasseur - Partridge (Affable. Cuddly.)

Guenther Steiner - Shoebill (self-explanatory, look up a photo)

Cyril Abiteboul - Eagle Owl (something about his face is very Eagle Owl)

Micheal Italiano - Kookaburra (laughs when they shouldn't)

Zak Brown - Chicken (self-explanatory. Literally and metaphorically)

Andreas (mclaren) - Common Quail (short lifespan)

Mattia Binotto - Pigeon (wants to be as pretty and loved as Charles. Is a public nuisance instead)

Otmar sznafnauer - Peacock (Struts around, can't really fly)

Resident Bastard:

Jos Verstappen - Cuckoo (Cuckoos are brood parasites, and lay their eggs in nests of birds of other species'. The cuckoo parent therefore does nothing while other birds raise their young)

assign dog breeds to your OCs? :)

Hell yeah!!! I think I've done something similar before but it was a while back so I'm just gonna do this again from scratch lol <3333

Going off a mix of look, temperament, and breed history for this

Rae: Rhodesian Ridgeback (protective, family-oriented dogs)

Robin: Basenji (known as the "barkless dog", their vocalizations are more like yodeling)

Madison: Portuguese Water Dog (aquatic dog, strong-willed and independent)

Ophelia: Cane Corso (powerful and intimidating, but most of the time is a gentle giant)

Gia: Italian Greyhound (poor anxious thing...)

Jasper: Catahoula Leopard Dog (state dog of Louisiana, intelligent and energetic but known to be good family dogs for active families)

Kestrel: Mountain Cur (small working dogs, bred for hunting and farming, adventurous and extremely intelligent)

Katherine: Bluetick Coonhound (I mean, of course, for a Tennessee girl)

Quinn: Australian Kelpie (bred to herd sheep or cattle, extremely quick and athletic and work well in teams)

Eris: Saluki (one of the oldest recognized dog breeds, originally bred in Egypt and the Middle East, known to be protective and "affectionate but not demonstrative")

Nikoletta: Staffordshire Terrier (much like other bull terriers, they get a bad rap due to the illegal dogfighting industry, but can actually be very affectionate and loyal dogs when placed in a family setting)

Jimmy: Golden Retriever (I mean... c'mon, he's just a sweetheart, what other dog breed could he be?)

I love it when I read a book that isn't set in the real world and my brain just starts handing out random accents to characters like free candy, geographic and demographic logic be damned.

Like sure, all the Rainwings are Australian (except Glory bc she was raised in the cave) but then so are Sky and Wren? Scarlet and Peril are Scottish, but Flame is Spanish and Kestrel and Ruby are American, but all the Leafwings are Scottish too despite being from another continent *UNLESS* it's Sequoia and Hazel who just have plain American accents, or...Willow who my brain just defaulted to being French Creole???

My brain just comes up with accents on the spot and if it does too many it starts bleeding the accents between characters and it's just. Reading is fun yall

Lesser Flamingo

Don't let the name of this bird fool you, the Lesser Flamingo is actually quite metal. Their favorite breeding ground is a lake where almost nothing else can survive, relying on the toxicity of the lake in order to keep off predators. However, these fine fellows are near threatened, even though they are the most numerous species of flamingo. Lets hope they can rock on for a long time. Learn More!

Australian Kestrel

One of the smallest kinds of falcons, they do not rely on speed to catch their prey (mainly that of bugs). They often hover as they hunt over grasslands, and it will sometimes rely on bushfires in order to hunt. As insects hop away from the flames, the Australian kestrel makes its move. Learn More!

Round Two: Cryptogyps vs Miosurnia

Cryptogyps lacertosus

Artwork by @otussketching, written by @zygodactylus

Name Meaning: Powerful Hidden Vulture 

Time: 770,000 to 55,000 years ago (Chibanian to Tarantian stage of the Pleistocene epoch, Quaternary period) 

Location: Throughout Australia, including Kalamurina, the Wellington Caves, and the Nullarbor Plain 

Today, there are no vultures in Australia. In fact, until recently, it seemed fairly clear that no vultures had lived in Australia - but now, we know they did! Originally thought to be an eagle, Cryptogyps was on the small size for a vulture, only bigger than the living Hooded Vulture - though it was about the size of the wedge-tailed eagle. However, it was proportioned similarly to other vultures, and between that and its great range across the entirety of Australia, it is logical to conclude that it lived similarly to other vultures, feeding primarily on carrion and going great distances to find it. It did not have the right musculature to be an active hunter like eagles and hawks. As such, Cryptogyps was a vital part of its environment, reducing the spread of disease and recycling nutrients and energy back into the food web like vultures today. Cryptogyps lived alongside a wide variety of weird megafuana present in Australia during the last ice age, including marsupial lions, giant demon-ducks (mihirungs), giant hippo-sized wombats, sheep-sized and fossorial echidnas, short-faced kangaroos, giant koalas, thylacines, giant maleefowls, huge monitor lizards, large crocodilians, and giant pythons - as well as cassowaries, regular kangaroos, emus, and other large animals that remain today. It was a weird place of which Cryptogyps was a small and important part, and would have been a regular sight in the skies to the first Indigenous Australians to settle on the continent!

Miosurnia diurna

Artwork by @otussketching, written by @zygodactylus

Name Meaning: Diurnal Hawk-Owl from the Miocene 

Time: 7.25  to 11.1 million years old (Tortonian stage of the Miocene epoch, Neogene period)

Location: Liushu Formation, Gansu Province, China

Miosurnia was a small owl, weighing around 318 grams and having a similar overall size to its living relatives, the modern hawk-owls. And, like its living relatives, Miosurnia was diurnal (based on its eye shape) - a rarity in owls, mainly seen in Hawk-Owls and putative early members of the group. As such, this small clade of diurnal owls has a longer and more extensive range than previously thought. If so, it may have eaten a variety of small diurnal mammals, similar to small kestrels in many habitats today. This allowed it to live alongside a wide variety of other avian predators, including many Old World Vultures and falcons. Like other diurnal owls, Miosurnia lived in a large open habitat, and this was one right after the great grassland explosion of the Miocene. As the polar ice sheets grew, these large open habitats expanded across the planet, greatly affecting many ecologies. In addition to other birds of prey, Miosurnia shared its habitat with Panraogallus, ostriches, sandgrouse, Ergilornithids, and many mammals such as Cahlicotheris, Gomphotheres, horses, giraffids, and buff hyenas.

tribe accents

this is STUPID do not take any of this as serious thinking

but

i’ve always figured that like 

oh yeah i’ve never listened to the audiobooks but I think

SANDWINGS all have “standard” american accents, maybe a HINT of a stereotypical texan—Smolder is the only one exempt from this, Smolder is posh english and i don’t know why but he just is

ICEWINGS are definitely like, Scottish, I think. Except Winter sounds like Sasuka Uchiha English Dub and Hailstorm sounds like fucking Chris Evans but no one mentions it or talks about it 

MUDWINGS my instinct is like, Louisiana but I feel like that’s too easy of a jump, you know? Like, oh, they’re in a swamp of course they sound like everyone in frickin True Detective, so I don’t know. Maybe they just are Pacific Northwest. Maybe they sound like Every Life is Strange game 

RAINWINGS HAVE A FILIPINO OR LATINE ACCENT

SKYWINGS ARE FROM BROOKLYN. PERIL IS LIKE: AYYYY WATCH YA FRICKIN TAIL IM WALWKIN HEAH. RUBY SOUNDS LIKE MITTENS FROM BOLT. All of the Dragonets of Destiny are just Weird New Yorkers because they took after Kestrel’s speech patterns

NIGHTWINGS are specifically Asian People Whose Second Language is English But Are Fluent And They Learned English In An Oceanic Commonwealth Country. 

SEAWINGS are Australian because I feel like Anemone cussing someone out while Being Australian would be fucking hilarious
