ummm distraction okay!!! bird facts perhaps???
um! magpies are a corvid so they're related to crows, and are very intelligent! i think some magpies can even talk? and some crows and ravens can talk and mimic human speech suuuuper well, even better than parrots!! also australian magpies are not related to (european) magpies at all. if you wanna see a raven talk you can look up Mischief the raven!
also no longer a bird fact but did you know there's a type of deep-sea fish called the tripod fish that has like, these looong appendages on their fins that they can stand on. so they just kinda. stand on the bottom of the ocean and let food float into their face.
WAIT THEY WHAT THAT'S SO COOL
I've never seen a magpie I didn't know they could do that and I knew Ravens were like. Super smart and if you're nice to then they steal stuff for you but I never knew they could talk that's so cool woah
OR WAIT NO I THINK I SAW SOME MAGPIES they're the black birds with the white feathers on their wings right?? The ones because of which you shouldn't leave your shiny jewelry on gardening tables because they will come and steal it from you right?? In germany we say that about them I think it's true but that might be mainly because I grew up with the way you'd see one of them fly around and go ''Oop take care not to leave your shiny accessoiries outside or else it'll get stolen!" I love ravens they're my favourite birds dext to pigeons and doves they're such little guys and when you're nice to them they can steal stuff for you I think that's so sweet of them <33
In one of my favourite radioplays there's a little girl that has a raven that can talk and I always thought that was a little exaggerated suspension of dispelief and all that but I never knew that could actually do that that's so awesome!!
also I love how the australian magpie kinda just looks like the european one in reverse how funky of nature to do that
also what's it with deep sea fish and always looking Like That is there any deep sea creature that isn't the most creature you've ever seen I swear they just get more and more shaped
and also I envy that fish it must be so chill to just vibe at the floor of the ocean and the food just floats at you. What a lifestyle /pos
