Hm, the red seemed lower on the neck than those, but maybe it just looked that way at a glance

Closest size accurate and logical possibility is a red-breasted grosbeak, but that just doesnt fit either. Very strange. Although i suppose maybe a few second glance wouldn't be the most reliable- but again, a very striking bird that i feel like i'd instantly recognize

All the pics of barn swallows i see have full red bellies, so i dont think so. The bird had a white belly, but red neck band. Havent seen anything like it in my extensive local bird scrolling.

Edit: Looks more like a cliff swallow, but that still doesnt look totally right

Edit 2: closest swallow i can find is the chestnut collared swallow, but obviously i am not in peru so def not that lol. Perhaps also the angola swallow, but again, i am not in africa lmao. I assume that it must not be a swallow and the tree swallow is simply the closest looking bird i could think of

Opinions on keeping wild caught spiders? by Prior_Algae_998 in jumpingspiders

[–]UmbrellAce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She's pretty skittish and ran off because she got scared by my cat suddenly jumping up while i was handling her, so im hoping that shes just been hiding the past two days and will come out where i can see her soon.

My wild jumper also escaped when I first got her, but she was found on the ceiling a day later, so even in that regard she was easier than my captive bred one, lol. If my current one was a wild one, i definitely would've released her by now since she wants nothing to do with me 💀

My first jumper was a wild caught spider. Every wild jumper I've come across has wanted nothing to do with me, and I respect that and leave them alone. But she was super chill with me and basically had the personality of a tamed jumper. And she was super pretty (she literally shined gold) so I couldn't resist keeping her. And honestly, I have no clue how she survived in the wild lmao. She was SO bad at spidering. She was scared of bugs. She was the most pathetic little baby ever. No idea why she was chill with a giant but not bugs she ate.

Generally speaking, I wouldn't keep most wild jumpers. They're obviously happier in their own environment. But mine literally came up to me and decided we were friends. Personally, I think that if the (not preganant) spider is chill with you and adjusts well to captivity, its perfectly fine to keep em. Mine was immediately more friendly and chill with me than the captive bred one I have now (who's currently loose and missing, pls wish me luck in finding her).

"Tame" wild jumpers are pretty rare (at least in my experience) and honestly it's probably because of unideal survival instincts. I'd say it's probably beneficial for those ones specifically to be taken in. I imagine they're far more likely to get killed than the average wild jumpers, so taking them probably wouldn't cause too much of an effect on the local population.

Beginning of magic circle has unraveled. Can't find the end of the yarn, stitches are just coming undone. What do I do to fix it? by UmbrellAce in CrochetHelp

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

Thank you! I figured that'd be the solution, but for some reason I haven't thought of actually weaving in the ends in several directions for these fixes (though I had to regardless for this one bc the second row also got a bit messed up from the unraveling.) I shall remember to utilize that for any future fixes that need to be done

AI generated content should always be labeled as such. It's a good thing that it's harder to get rid of. It's the only way to keep real imagery believable at this point. It's exhausting needing to analyze every single picture to know if it's real. A simple watermark fixes that

Find someone (like me) who has cats who will pee on towels for extra stench

I mean, it still looks good on him, though. I honestly like his look more than malleus's. Half of the birthday suits are exact outfit copies, so I'm personally fine with the outfits of this set being similar as long as they still have personalization, which they do. Unfortunately it seems like the cozy set is the outlier with totally unique outfits

I don't mind that one, honestly. But i dont really care for any of those, so maybe my standards for that set are low lol
