@@MbappeDaGoat Courage is different for everyone. It's only courageous if you're afraid of it. It's not courage for me to hold and handle large snakes or spiders because I love them. But for me to jump into the ocean when I'm a mile from shore would take courage for me.

Then there's me. I run away from the tiny parrots in pet smart cages, cry when a segue gets too close to me at the beach for too long, and can barely walk up a flight of stairs without getting winded.

It was awesome to see birds from my childhood, especially that "Crow with the Tuxedo" (that's how I used to call them, since most of the other species are mostly all black)🤩🤩

[@dutchdykefinger]

well as a european, the eurasian magpie is extremely common, and they ofcourse have a very pronounced crisp white fluffy looking accents under the wings and white tail accents they have the longest tails of all of the crows, generally taller than the bird itself, and it has this quirky way of wagging that tail up at an interval to keep balance on thinner twigs and clothes lines haha they're common as dirt where i live, i've probably seen 80 today not even really leaving my street i can probably open my back door and hear a couple machine gunning from some rooftop within a minute :') noone can leave the house in this area without the magpies taking notice and clicking it back to others, they see you still trying to befriend a couple lol
