  If anyone is wondering, that’s a red-backed fairywren. Here’s some other great fairywrens (literally, it’s in their names):

  Lovely fairywren Superb fairywren Splendid fairywren

    Can you imagine getting named the red-backed fairywren when your fellow bird species are getting named stuff like that?

    Sure, they’re lovely, superb…splendid even. But they’re not as magnificent as some other birds.

      They may be magnificent, but are they powerful?

      Whoever said bird people are boring clearly hasn’t seen some of the names they come up with.

  Fun fact, only 2% of Americans are born blonde

    Fun fact: there are more birds than Americans

  • balderdash9@lemmy.zip ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Yet if you watch anime, the American character is typically blonde haired and blue eyed

    And then everyone asks you if it’s natural, especially if you’re a man… oh well.

    Thanks for the fun fact!

  I have way too much fun Shazam-ing birds with the Merlin Bird ID app. Constantly listening for new calls now, it’s like Pokémon hunting IRL.

    There is something that looks like a crow but screeches like a gull and merlin hasn’t been able to figure it out 😭

    source

    • Foreigner@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Where are you based approximately? Europe/Asia/US/etc? Is the bird fully black? Same size as a crow? Any distinguishing information might help!

  This meme reads like it was made using voice to text while in a self-deiving car.
