>>4928828Anyone have that pic with a confused looking falcon with a "え?" next to it?Here, have a sanderling pic from my last visit to the beach.
My new local friendYes I feed him, no I won't stop
>>4928853A barrel roll?
>>4929453He laughs at you behind your back, you know.

>>4928828Dog gang here. Birds are inferior.
>>4928828
>>4929453That's a fine feathered friend you have.
>>4932039I see your Eastern Bluebird and raise you a Mountain Bluebird.

>>4931973That dog only fetched the shot bird. A noble task to prevent wastage and provide a meal for their family.A cat kills with unrelenting joy and commits the act of murder with little to no thought. More often than not the cat will kill simply because it enjoys killing. Animals cannot commit acts of evil, but the sheer joy a cat experiences while killing endangered song birds come suspiciously close.
>>4932355Cats are not special in that regard. Every predator delights in killing, a single loose dog can destroy an entire flock of sheep for fun. A fox in a henhouse will kill and maim every single hen so will a weasel. Crows and magpies also destroy whole nests of songbirds but they are universaly loved for some reason.
>>4932364A cat is special in only one regard. How remarkably unspecial it truly is.
>>4932367They are remarkable in making great pets.If you want a truly evil incarnate, it has to be the crow that carves out the eyes of ewes as they lay giving birth.
>>4932382I would say that they are more like living furniture and occasionally a bed warmer.The crows are eating the lambs. Cats have made hundreds if not thousands of species of birds and reptiles go extinct merely for the thrill of the hunt.
>>4932399less than 70 total species can be (partialy) blamed on cats
>>49324114 billion birds and 22 billion mammals annually in the US.They're basically the nazis of the animal kingdom.
>>4932415Some of those estimates exceed actual bird populations. Enviromentalists love to exaggerate.
>>4932417I forgot to say up to, but I could believe it. I think it was 1.2 billion to 4 billion for birds.
>>4932418desu I can believe it too there being 80 million catsthere are just too many damn cats, a single outdoor cat only kills something like 10-20 birds a yearnot realy super bloodthirsty predator numbers
>>493242330 birds and 250 mammals. Close to one kill per day. They would kill so much more if only they could.
>>4932424>1 tiny animal per daykekmeanwhile actual bloodthirsty predators:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-TMkZzzPZBU
>>4932434Cats are inferior to just about every living animal and yet they cause so much pain and destruction.
>>4932436Cats don’t. Cats are not conscious actors. They are dumber than bricks. Only a low IQ ape would blame a dog for killing some dumb chickens, after all. I would never harm a dog over chickens. I am a human who knows better. Chickens are fucking free. Dogs have emotional value. I don’t care what animals do to each other, i care about what HUMANS do to prevent it or not and whether or not they repay me. The culpable parties are>people who do not spay and neuter cats>people who argue that not letting cats out is abusive or inviting a rat plague or other dumb shit>people who casually let cats out to avoid taking care of them properlyAll of these people owe the owners of wildlife (states) significant compensation.
>>4932436>hysteriathey are just a dumb small predatorblame humans for letting them outdogs turn small animals and fledgelings into chew toys with just as much delight, except people keep them contained better, so they only kill the birds in their own yards
>>4932436>CATS ARE SO LE EVIL>no they're not other animals do that>LOL CATS ARE SO INFERIORrepeat ad nauseam, do you get tired of being so retarded? why not just admit you hate cats because you're a mentally ill pajeet instead of giving it a pseudo-rational whiny pretense>>4932440oh boy it's the deboonker schizofighting the good fight against the aryan cat gods while gritting your teeth to larp as a sane person without a deep seated vendetta against an animal?all of you are niggers and your barneyfag-tier obsession with cats has derailed this entire board, much like the you say cats should the mentally ill should be fed to large birds and the humans responsible (the immense faggots pretending to be our mod team) beaten for not dealing with you lesser beings. It's all so tiresome
>>4932588It’s a catfag false flagging
>>4929453I love birds so much man I'm very thankful to have lots of beautiful birds here in Australia. One of the things I actually like about it here.
>>4932650More of my shots

>>4934579For me, it's the Eurasian Bullfinch. Love seeing these lil round guys.
>>4934720forgot pic
Question. When it's cold, about freezing point, birds shit ALL over the fucking place. I can't walk anywhere before stepping in some loogy. Why is this? It's mostly corvidae in a city.
>>4932355No one asked, anti cat schizo
>>4935104>seethes at week old postlol 4chan equivalent of beta males who speak their minds hours later in an empty room

i will never understand how pigeon "people" exist. dozens of native birds in every locale, and some jamokes pick pigeons.
>>4940795the noble rockdove is the horse and shepherd dog and barnyard cat of the bort worldloyal and loving and friendly to humans, they live in our cities, because we domesticated them. they hang out with us, are cute, and fat, and kind of stupid.they were the first telephones dingus.
is it possible that there's so many birds left undiscovered or at least unnamed? I lived in a tropical country and I've seen birds that I can't find anywhere in books and in internet.pic related. I've seen this one several times before and I can't identify it. it's tail is almost 4 times longer than its body.
>>4934579Bearded reedling
>>4928828Goddamn I love birds
killed my budgie of 10 years the other day because im a fuck up.
>>4943818now you can kill yourself
>>4943818retard, budgies are ridiculously easy to take care of
>>4943820yeah probably>>4944075it was the pellet transition over the course of 6 weeks. i saw her eating the pellets. idk anymore.
>>4944183It's probably unrelated to the diet, the budgie was old, could have been any number of organ failure.Sorry for your loss.
>>4944197thanks, she was my oldest friend.
>>4934579nuthatches are the cutest and I love seeing them hanging and running upside down. One gutsy nuthatch likes to come close to me and yap at me when I refill the feeders.
saw a white throated dipper today
>>4928828Theres a Peregrin that hangs around my neighborhood, everyone calls him Sarge.
>>4940270Croven, or Ravow?
>>4948616Merlin was telling me it was a Raven, but I'm not sure.

ofc the day I hear an owl is also the day I'm very busy and was on the way home.. didn't have camera or even binos with me so whatever
>>4940795due to where i work i see pigeons every day and closely, they are always just chill if you are too close to their eggs they give you a cute grunt. found a baby a few months ago who had fallen out of a nest about 30ft into a stairwell his leg was busted and he was stuck so i picked him up and took him on my rounds with me he just sat there quietly and ate a few seeds from my hand. took him home the local bird woman wasnt taking anymore birds so he stayed with me till his leg was better. now he just hangs out with me all day, goes for a fly comes back sleeps on my shoulder hes really great.
Snowy owl swooped by me while I was shovelling at night, I think it thought my fur hood was it's next meal. Sorry owl bro.
Just saw this roadrunner this morning
>>4932335I had those bluebirds all over where I grew up, they were really nice to listen to and watch. A lot of times blue jays would just seemingly get jealous of them having a nice time and start trying to chase them off to different trees
