@@LivingMyBestLifeIAm there’s data on that. According to the Sierra Club, it’s ~ a million of birds a year in the US. But actually 6x that die from hitting communication towers and 25x that die from hitting power lines. Wind turbines are usually places away from bird migration routes, while power lines kind of go anywhere people are. But by far the biggest cause of bird fatality in the US is free range domestic cats, who kill several billion yearly. So if you’re worried about the birds, keep your cat inside or give them a collar designed to scare away birds and help out your local cat shelter.

Im not gonna fight evolution. We undoubtedly treat animals and nature terribly but im never gonna stop eating meat. Im gonna change how and where I get it. We were made to eat a balanced diet of whatever we came across is the wild, provided it doesnt make us sick. Thats why humans can eat such a wide range of things. Animals cant touch the majority of what we eat, like garlic, onions, grapes and many more. And animals that evolved to eat only veggies/fruits dont have sharp teeth and powerfup digestive systems like wo do. Do what you want but dont preach veganism like it makes you a good person because it doesnt. Objectively it makes you a denier who takes the shortcut to a problem because its honestly easier to call people bad then try to change the way they think about serious issues like overpopulation.

There are some species (bearded dragons being one that I can independently verify, I used to work in an exotic pet store) that bob their heads quite often, usually while they are basking, which would rule out them doing it to stabilized their eyesight since they weren't moving in the first place.

I bred and sold white doves for awhile, and one of the final steps in a female deciding to bond with a certain male is by her tasting his milk. He might be strong and sexy as hell (to a female white dove), but if his milk isn't good enough to help feed the babies, she'll reject him. They take exactly 12 hour shifts in sitting on the eggs, and they're both so devoted that when it's time to switch, the parent that's been sitting kind of has to be shoved out of the nest by the parent who's turn it is to sit. There are times when neither one wants a break from sitting on the eggs, and they'll both sit on the nest together. They're very sweet, loving, intelligent birds.

So a field with knee high or waist high legumes and grasses would be cut to 6 or 7 centimeters. Hawks learned to exploit those fields currently getting worked for the easy sighting and hunting. Four decades later hawks have largely been replaced by crows and gulls eating mice from those fields.

I give pigeons exactly as much credit as they deserve, being probably my second or third favorite animal. I hate that people treat them like common pests, especially since we literally brought them to the US as companions in the first place.. and as food, but mostly companions. We also drove the native species to extinction. I made friends with a flock living in my porch roof, and they're such wonderful little birds.

Wanna get back at seagulls just a bit? Buy some hot chips/fries. Drive to the beach. Throw a chip or 2 out of your window and up high so the gulls will see it. When the gulls arrive place a chip on your dash as close to the windscreen as possible without risking it falling down a vent etc. Now turn on your windscreen wipers and enjoy the show.

In French speaking cultures, the owl is associated with all that is excellent and outstanding. A colloquial adjective in French for anything that is extra good is also the word for owl itself, "chouette." An owl is "une chouette" but anything that is excellent or awesome is described as "chouette" as in "Hey, I just found a new job!" "Really? Chouette!"

imagine parrots evolving with a taste for human meat... then one day as you are chilling in your room, you begin to hear your parents and siblings calling you out to the backyard... but when you get there, they're nowhere in sight... then from behind you, you hear a collective voice of your family say "got you" then the skies go dark as thousands of parrots dive towards their next meal. and as you lay there on the ground, being eaten alive... you see on the corner... the remains of your family... plucked to the bones...

My favorite bird solely for the facts is the murder birds! Why because when they attack Wright whales that are new born they havent, the baby whales learned to defend themselves by flipping them off! It creates a very funny visual of adult whales giving the bird to birds in self defence!

9:00 One big downside that owls have to deal with is that those hooks and loose feathers are not very good at repelling water. With most birds their tightly hooked feathers repel water so they aren't bothered by it but owl feathers absorb water. If they get very wet like falling into water their feathers absorb so much water they become too heavy to fly. This is why owls usually have a dry spot where they take shelter if it rains.

I'm a delivery driver and a solid 50% of my deliveries are to apartment complexes, many of which have carport style parking spots for tenants. Every time I go to those I can't help but think "why are there not solar panels on those?" This video makes the point that building the canopies would be costly at first. These are already built. Seems like a pretty high incentive for a smart apt complex owner to install the solar panels and offer FREE electricity (or at least drastically reduced).
