Here's a little something I wrote based off of my hermitcraft-warriors au. There's more to the world building, timeline, events, and such, so maybe I'll post that sometime later.

Anyhow, enjoy! And if it wasn't clear already, Macaw is Grian before he joined the Hermits' clan and he was given the name Parrotfeather. Also the hermits don't have a clan name, they just call themselves Hermits. They're kinda like a budget clan. Okay, yep, onto the story.

Macaw was tired. He had been walking for practically the entire day in this gods forsaken forest. It felt like he was going in circles, and now his paw pads were sore. It was great, just great.

By no means was he used to forests. All of the new smells bombarded his sensitive nose and caused him to sneeze. There were too many smells and too many pokey things, in his humble opinion. He couldn't tell head from tail. It didn't help that Macaw felt like he couldn't step anywhere without greenery in the way.

But it was a major improvement from whatever the two-legs had going on. Macaw shuddered at the reminder. He was glad to be gone from there. And he refused to remember the time before that.

The ginger cat sighed and paused. He sat down to give his aching paws a rest. Then gave up and layed down to extend fully in the soft grass. Macaw began the methodic task of licking his paws clean.

But he didn't get very far. The golden foliage tickiling his fur was too much to handle. Macaw, irritated and stressed, flicked his tail to and fro.

He had no clue what he was doing in a forest. He couldn't catch a mouse to save his life, much less sustain himself. It was stupid, maybe he should have just stayed with the deranged two legs after all. It was all so stupid. Stupid, stupid, stupid-

Macaw froze suddenly. There was noise, voices. His eyes widened.

"Yeah, Mumbo, did'ja see me catch that vole!? It didn't even see me coming!"

"Scar, you ran head first into a tree."

There was silence for a moment. If Macaw hadn't been so terrified for his life, he would be laughing.

"Okay, well, those are just technicalities."

"Are we sure you don't need to see the medicine cat? I'm sure Fuchsiaflower would be happy to tell us if you've scrambled your brains."

"Oh, I'm sure she's already fed up with me. It's no biggie, though!"

The voices were getting louder. They were approaching and Macaw was doing nothing but sitting in the flowers, cowering like an idiot. His breaths were getting cut short. Surely, surely, this would be the end.

It was then that a slender brown and white tabby tom revealed himself from the brush. He was looking back over his shoulder when he stopped and realized Macaw was squatting right there.

Silence again.

Someone spoke from behind the tom, "What is it, Bristlescar? Ah- oh."

Another cat appeared, this time he was bigger and had black and white patches. And Macaw meant a lot bigger. He must've been at least twice his own size.

It was a tense moment of the three staring at each other before the brown tabby cracked a grin.

"Well hello there." The black and white cat glanced at his partner. Macaw couldn't decipher if it was in concern or exasperation.

"Uh, hi?" Macaw hesitantly let himself relax from his crouch. If they hadn't attacked him yet, chances are they wouldn't now.

"HI, hi! I'm Bristlescar! And this here is Mumblenose! What's your name - wait don't tell me, let me guess," the brown and white tom, Bristlescar apparently (seriously, who named these guys? Their mothers must have hated them), closed his eyes in what appeared to be concentration.

The other cat gave Macaw a look that told him this is a common occurrence. Then Mumblenose seemed to realize their situation and quickly broke eye contact. It was a little bit funny, Macaw had to admit.

"It starts with a G! No? Yeah? Well I'm going to call you G. You know why? Because you are in those golden plants and, you know, g like gold. Okay," Bristlescar looked pleased, he smiled at the other cat.

"Uh, my name is actually Macaw." Macaw was having difficulty comprehending what was happening right now.

"Oh! Well, do you mind if I call you G? Because I think I'm going to. You can call me Scar if I get to call you G, deal?"

Before Macaw got a chance to interrupt, the black and white tom butted in, "Scar, er, I really don't think this is going anywhere. We're supposed to be hunting prey and keeping intruders out of our territory."

But, judging by his tone, Mumblenose wasn't all that annoyed.

"Oh, come on Mumblenose! Look at him, look at how cute and small he is! I'm sure Turtlestar would adopt him immediately. Why don't we take him back to camp?" Bristlescar turned back to Macaw. Macaw wasn't sure he liked being called 'cute' or 'small'. In fact, he despised it. "Would you like to come with us to our home?"

Macaw could just barely see Mumblenose smiling and rolling his eyes...fondly? Maybe?

Macaw was just about to say something biting in response, until he actually considered. It would be kind of nice to have a home with other cats. Even if those cats are strange social outcasts and rejects.

And even if they have strange names and even stranger customs and live in the woods. These two were...nice.

Maybe it wouldn't be all that bad. Here in the forest, no one knew they existed. Most importantly, no one could find Macaw. And the two cats were giving him warm, reassuring looks.

Macaw fully stood up from within the golden flowers. He faced them.

"You know what? Sure, why not."

"Ah-maz-ing!" Bristlescar exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear.

"Glad to have ya, mate. If you decide to stay, I'm sure you'll fit in just fine." Mumblenose added.

And with that, the two forest cats turned tail deeper into the foliage and Macaw scampered up to follow them. For once in his life, Macaw could put his past behind him and open up to a brand new, and hopefully safe, beginning.

This is the African Grey Parrot feather pendant worn with a gemstone charm next to it. I have lots of little stones to choose from in my Etsy shop! I made a mold of the feather, this pendant is pure silver. It is not cast, but cut out by hand in fine silver~ https://www.etsy.com/listing/235759690/feather-fine-silver-pendant

VA Native Fish Hunting - 9

A beautiful Sunday out on the Potomac, out with the wife, a friend of ours, and our dogs to go shark tooth hunting. But of course I brought a net with me juuuuust in case I found some places to go fishing. And wouldn’t you know it? I did! I found a couple of new (for me, obv) species so if you want to see more, just click below!

FYI as the temps are dropping here, I only have a few more trips in me this year, maybe, but this is a place I’d love to come back to with some minnow traps and a throw net.

The main fish species in the area was the Inland Silverside (Menidia beryllina), a neat little surf species that doesn’t exceed 4 inches. According to fishbase, they can be found in marine, brackish, and freshwater habitats... a really cool ability that is uncommon despite the fact that every fish species I caught today shares that :) this particular area is low-end brackish (1.006).

Just off the Potomac were these little “tidewater” pools. I presume they are freshwater because the dominant plant species were duckweed(s) - which as far as I know have no brackish tolerance. The few times I’ve tried to acclimate them, I’ve had zero luck. Moral of the story folks - never go fishing without a hydrometer!

Also in the pool, though, was this Parrotfeather/Water Milfoil, an invasive species from South America that can now be found pretty much world-wide. A very attractive species that I wouldn’t mind trying in the right aquarium - provided you keep them far away from native water sources.

The dominant species in this pool (and one other I checked) were Eastern Mosquitofish (G. holbrooki). Normally not super worth noting... I mean I’ve found them in literally every location I’ve gone fishing in, minus 1 or 2, and many locations I have only surveyed so far. But what I thought was cool here is that this particular population has the same spotted tail fin that my home population is starting to acquire. I haven’t seen it in many others!

This was my big cool find of the day... this was an itty bitty Sheepshead Minnow (Cyprinodon variegatus)! This is an absolutely fascinating fish that can survive in freshwater or in salinities up to 6 times that of the ocean. Hardy, wide-spread, adults have attractive iridescence, and not too big (at 3 inches max) - why then are they laboratory fish and not common aquarium fish? Well, they can also be extremely nasty little nippers as adults, not afraid to punch above their weight class. I presume they work well with other waspish fish, but easy-going community fish, they are not. But incredibly cool nonetheless.

So I tried a thing. Had to do something with all those molted feathers.
