I am a firm believer that BirdFlight is the perfect candidate for a super edition

For those who don’t know her, she is CloudStars mate in CloudStars Journey and when SkyClan was forced out of their homes she was left behind since she had just given birth to CloudStars kits. She ends up living in ThunderClan and her kits are supposedly related to TigerStar.

Why she should have a superedition:

- We know nothing about her! Super editions and Novellas are the perfect opportunity to get to know characters that aren’t well explored within the books.

- Before SkyClan left they were in some BIG beef with ThunderClan over territory and some other things I forgot, BirdFlight was left in a clan that HATES the clan she was just in! It’s the perfect set up for conflict with BirdFlights heritage and her kits future.

- We get a queen POV! I’d love her POV as a queen with her fretting over her kits as they grow up in ThunderClan.

- I personally believe that the main problem is that BirdFlight is not allowed to tell her kits that they are SkyClan cats and that she’s banned from mentioning anything about her heritage.

- RedStar would 100% be the villain of the story. If I remember correctly it was his medicine cat that actually suggested that BirdFlight and her kits join ThunderClan, not him.

- The book would fit perfectly in the gap between CloudStars Journey and MapleShades Vengeance.

- We would get to likely see a young MapleShade, or maybe even MapleShades parents. I’d like it if the Erin’s retconned that BirdFlight is related to TigerStar and instead made it so that one of her kits is actually MapleShades parents.

Those are most of my reasons, I know it’s not likely that she would get a superedition since no one really knows or remembers her. Maybe if I spread enough propaganda maybe the Erin’s will notice

Rüppell's vulture (Gyps rueppelli)

Rüppell's Vulture, also known as Rüppell's Griffon Vulture (not to be confused with the Griffon Vulture) is considered the world's highest-flying bird, with confirmed evidence of flying at 11,300 meters (37,000 feet) above sea level. They are mainly native to Africa, particularly East Africa and the Sahel region.

Got swooped by a northern harrier earlier this week while visiting a National Wildlife Refuge in Montana. Looking back while leaving the boardwalk as directed and saw a harrier land in some of the reeds near it. Strongly question the choice of (probable) nesting spot but wildlife does what it wants, and always listen when they tell you to leave.

A female falcon was equipped with a satellite tracking system in South Africa before migrating to Finland. Image shows tracker data. In just 42 days, she flew over 10.000 km, at an incredible average of 230 km per day and nearly in a straight line.
