The Tufted Titmouse is a Small, but Interesting Songbird
The Best Perch
One of my most common backyard birds, is the little tufted titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor). They are small, even by songbird standards, but they usually arrive in a small noisy flock that announces itself as it flies into the area. Sometimes pairs of the birds stick close together, but most often they split up to eat, groom, and explore once they have settled in an area. But once…
I think Mihawk and Garp would have the best relationship
In that I think Garp goes out of his way to relentlessly troll Mihawk by being stubbornly, purposefully, inept about the most mundane things while Mihawk, who knows exactly what he is doing and that he is being set up but ugghhhhhh, hates him on a level yet undiscovered by science.
He only gives the most tiniest of reactions to Garp’s ineptness, a brow furrowing a frown becoming deeper the tiniest twitch of an eye but Garp sees it, he knows that he’s succeeded and Mihawk hates him for it
Mihawk and Garp sitting at opposite ends of the giant ass warlord meeting table locked in an intense mental chess match unbeknownst to everyone in the room. Garp keeps waging psychological warfare on Mihawk by eating the pieces, everyone but him is extremely thrown when Mihawk unsheathes Yoru and lunges at Garp, who laughs manically, without warning
Mihawk tries to get some sympathy from Shanks but Shanks’ has found Garp and his shenanigans hilarious since he was five so he obviously thinks this is the best thing ever. It might also help that Mihawk tends to look like a puffed up pretty bird after every encounter with Garp but Shanks is just a man for Christ sake! he’s weak!
there’s a little fledgling bird on my driveway and it’s nice and fluffy and standing up and there’s adult birds around so I’m not worried about it’s safety and I KNOW it’s that time of year when baby birds are learning to fly and I should leave it alone but like. it is beeping So Loud and sounds so upset and it’s awakening my maternal instincts
if a bird did this to me and i survived (by the way this woman survived and still has both eyes), i would go on a bird genocide. i would kill them all whenever and wherever i saw them. i would become their king leopold, their hitler.
is there an accepted collective name for waddle dees? for when they're in a group; like how you have a flock or birds or a pack of wolves?
if not can i formally suggest: wuddle.
because it's cute and sounds like a puddle of waddle dees. but also because it's similar to 'huddle' which is used for stationary penguins on land. (penguins are in fact actually collectively called a 'waddle' when they're walking, so there is... you know. That.)
