What an amazing rainbow lorikeet mutation. Spotted in North Rothbury, NSW in 2021, the bird has been seen eating, drinking and flying with the rest of its group as any other lorikeet would do.

If you continue feeding pigeons bread and cookies after being informed that those things are terrible for them and can actually kill them, you're an asshole and I hate you so much

fyi you can buy bird seed for a few dollars at almost any general store

Pigeon foot with multiple hairs wrapped tightly around one toe

Pigeon foot after multiple hairs wrapped around toe have been removed, small indentation is left

Nice simple removal today, so satisfying to catch it before any major damage is done 💕

A six-panel comic. In panel 1, there's a pigeon standing awkwardly next to a pile of sticks with two eggs on it, and the panel is titled "Why pigeons make bad nests: A defense of pigeon aesthetics." In panel 2, a pigeon sits on a pile of sticks: "Many people think that pigeons are bad at making nests. Here are three good reasons why pigeon nests look bad." In panel 3, there's "Reason 1: Some birds, like orioles, nest in tree branches, so they weave elaborate structures that can withstand the elements..." And there's a female Baltimore Oriole weaving an elaborate hanging nest in a silver maple tree. In panel 4, "...but rock pigeons evolved to nest in crevices in cliffs, safely tucked away." And there's a pigeon sitting on a nest in a hole in a cliff. In panel 5, "Reason 2: People domesticated pigeons ages ago. Pigeons didn't need fancy nests because they had human-built homes." A beautiful dovecote shelters a flock of pigeons. In panel 6, "Reason 3: Less time making nest = more time eating seed." A pigeon pecks a seed near its nest, and says "It's called math."

My Patrons, who are wonderful, always get a process post about each comic. This time they got to see the three potential pigeon expressions I flipped between until my brain reconstituted itself into a pigeon www.patreon.com/birdandmoon
