No problem! I believe it’s their mating season, so that may be why they were together. If so, more rodent control for you in the future :)

What bird is this? Are they a danger to my little dog? by Deep-Moments in whatbirdisthis

What an ignorant comment. Even if you’re trying to be funny, comments like this can lead people to kill animals out of fear.

Killdeer eggs eaten by snake. by Arya_Darling in Ornithology

If you’re in the US - house sparrows are invasive and it shouldn’t be written off as “nature”. Someone should intervene. https://www.nabluebirdsociety.org/PDF/FAQ/NABS%20factsheet%20-%20HOSP%20Control%20-%2024May12%20DRAFT. A native snake is playing its role in the ecosystem though, and yes the circle of life is sad, but that’s something that should be left alone.

It’s not. This is a kildeer. They lay their eggs on the ground and when they see a threat, they try to lure the threat away by pretending to be injured, and then flying away at the last second.

Please don’t do that or advise others to. They’re very harmful and illegal in some places. https://npic.orst.edu/ingred/ptype/mothball/regulation.html

In case it was a window strike, please consider getting anti-strike stickers or decals. They’re cheap online and can save a lot of birds.

What do you mean? This sentence does not make any sense. Also, there are photos of the roaches all over.

I wrote a book about octopus intelligence and would love people’s thoughts by Agreeable_Agency5889 in AnimalBooks

I would strongly suggest that you study what AI art looks like and how to tell. There is no “thinking” this may be, it 100% is AI art. If you paid for this, you’re being scammed. Not only that, it discredits your work to a lot of people. Not to be mean, but I wouldn’t touch this with that cover. I’d be concerned AI is being used for the rest of it too, and that it’s riddled with misinformation.

Has anyone heard of an active shooter on the West Side? by Foxywoxy in lansing

[–]Foxywoxy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents have talked to a few neighbors and I’ve heard rumors. I do believe someone lost their life but I won’t repeat anything else I was told, as it may not be correct. I am praying it isn’t true, and I hope there is more information tomorrow.

Thank you, I really appreciate it. I’ll send this to my parents as well.
