  Look at these aristocrat birds with their summer homes.

    Alternatively, they are homeless and have to keep moving to avoid the coppas. 🐦➡️👮

      It’s called being a nomadic culture if you do it with other people

    The human versions also call themselves snowbirds. The rich ones mostly fly somewhere “nice”. Train kids and modern hobos hitch a ride to a more hospitable climate. The likes of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas travel in corporate-funded luxury RVs. The Sonora Desert is full of the same assholes fucking up Florida. They see “desert” and think it’s a wasteland, instead of a functioning ecosystem.

    falseknees comics aren’t necessarily structured around a big punchline. It’s often more of an animal kingdom slice of life. Here the bird on the left clearly hatched this year since they’re unaware of leaves changing color in autumn. This is isn’t their last surprise, as they’re about to find out what it means to be a migratory bird as well.

      And this is the high quality and thoughtful Internet comment I’m going to end my night with. Thank you Internet stranger. There is good in the world, after all.

      As someone else said, kudos to you.

      What a well worded, concise, and accurate comment. And said with warmth.

      Oh god is this AI!?

    I think the bluer bird is younger, not knowing that summer ends, and being even more surprised that this involves immense journeys

    I think the blue bird doesn’t migrate, but idk. Just a guess.

    I think the joke is kind of like the talking muffin joke. One bird sees a leaf changing color and apparently has a pattern recognizing brain enough to identify that summer is ending and remembering from last year that that means they’ll have to fly south.

    The other bird is a bird and it’s a miracle he recognized that the leaf changed color from day to day. He probably doesn’t even remember what migration is, it’s all instinct.

  I remember when I was a kid and was waiting for the holidays to come. I couldn’t read a calendar and could barely tell the time, so I just went through this bored/depressive period every single day for what seemed like an eternity until suddenly the holidays came.

  This recalls a forgotten memory. Some adult/teacher was explaining that birds (in general) go north for the winter. We’re midway up somewhere in the northern hemisphere. I was maybe 6 and just couldn’t grasp why birds would go north in the winter toward colder weather. The adult went off on a condescending rant about having to repeat themself and migratory patterns and birds being birds. I still know very little about birds.

    It’s such a shame. Children have so much curiosity for the world.

    Adults should realy nourish that, not kill it.

    I’ve worked with children in that age range (6 and older) and it’s realy crazy what they come up if you give them a bit of room to experiment with their ideas.

    “Birds fly south for the winter” was the second example I remember of my classmates having only learned things with northern hemisphere bias after moving to the northern hemisphere.

    The first was my classmates not grasping that while it was spring here, it was autumn back home.
