The holiday birb thread was such a success that people wanted it brought back for the rest of the year. So here it is!
This is the thread for all things bird, from the cute birbs and borbs,
to your memes and funny videos
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bY436JiiCjg
and also bird facts and even ancient birds*
such as Microraptor here.
Let's get our birding on!
*I am totally fine with this also being a dinosaur thread, even the non-avian dinosaurs.

False Knees is a comic with well drawn birbs. Also the comic is probably true about mourning doves.
American brown pelicans: catching fish by diving head first into the sea at high speeds
@Fuzzy Cumulonimbus Cloud friend pelican: provide n\aps!
owls are pretty cool

We have a flock of 7-9 oriental pied hornbills in my neighborhood and they bring me so much joy all the time despite being EXTREMELY loud and not beautiful-sounding
This morning I saw rose-ringed parakeets around the block - they come and go in the 'hood just like the tanimbar corellas
Both of those are introduced, the hornbills are native and have made a great recovery from near-local-extinction
We also have a few oriental magpie robins around my block that sound so beautiful it's amazing. Unfortunately this means that they're very popular as illegally-caught-and-caged songbirds, which is a real issue here

Eagle: I'm gonna eat that turkey.
Turkey:
Obviously this behavior is not ideal, so I chase them off whenever they approach me. But they are such beautiful animals, and it's honestly amazing to see them up close.
They are also very obviously dinosaurs at that distance. Gorgeous, iridescent bronze dinosaurs with pink and blue faces and elegant, stabby ivory beaks :razz:
That turkey was running as fast as that eagle was flying, if my perception from the slow motion was correct.
guys don't make peacocks angry

Can they play basketball?
Seems legit.

I'm thinking that's a lungfish.
And now an educational thread about how crossbill beaks work:
Or in video form:
Fun fact: the flight call of the white-winged crossbill is "yep!" A flock of them flying around cheerfully says, "Yep! Yep yep yep! Yep yep!" continuously.
