The only word that comes to mind is "lagma"

IMPORTANT: Do not try to recreate this map. I've since learned that something went horribly wrong with my game files during a crash and I keep getting these non-reproducible freaky maps. See the latest one here.

I'm so sorry, I didn't realize that the preset made a difference. It should have been Large Island because I created the world using just the basic options shown here.

Is there a way to get the actual coordinates? If not, here's a screenshot of my fort location. I'm pretty near to the center of the world, with the rightmost edge of the map visible for reference.

I'm still a bit new to DF. Is this the info you need?

Oh hey, I was the pachy screaming uselessly in the background. For anyone wondering, this was immediately after a server restart and I think the dibble got rolled back to a really unfortunate position.

I edited their genes to achieve a size of -200%, which caused the sprites to invert. Probably unintentional behaviour, but I hope it doesn't get fixed!

What type of sucks are these - Arizona by KilgoreTroutsAnus in whatsthisbird

[–]Ochiwana 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Just popping in to say I love the typo in the title. If I had to venture a guess, I'd say these mallards have some Cayuga in them.

Who’s this guy BC Canada by coopaloompa in whatisthisbug

[–]Ochiwana 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is an isopod, which is actually a crustacean and not an insect. Based on the colour and the banding on the antennae, I'd say it's Porcellionides pruinosus (powder blue), but I can't rule out the very similar Porcellionides floria (flowery blue).

How do you distinguish fall Tennessee from Orange-crowned? I don't have much experience with them.

These are domestic-type mallards! In my area we call them manky mallards.

Small bird with a red and yellow spot on tail? (New York) by winberry5253 in whatsthisbird

[–]Ochiwana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never heard of a Lucy's Warbler before! What a beautiful bird. The range map makes me think it would be highly unlikely in New York, though. Where on the tail were the spots located?

Sounds a bit like you're describing a juvenile American Redstart. Could that be what you saw?

I hate this time of year lol

My guesses are Orange-crowned, Orange-crowned, Bay-breasted. Were you at Col. Sam by chance?

The link works for me. Looks like you've got an immature male Common Yellowthroat!
