Viridiant posted:Stop buying premade bird houses you lazy fucks. Make your own. It's stupidly easy. AND STOP USING CEDAR. Pine or Plywood last longer. We don't all have the luxury of having our own saws and screwdrivers and whatnot. Also, many of our members are seniors who lack the dexterity. You can buy a premade AND support your fellow birdheads by ordering from one of our pros in the Bird Stuff Cheap subforum. I feel like we've had this same conversation about 50 times, and honestly I think it's just a thinly veiled excuse to show off more goddamn pictures of those same three glued-together poo poo-rear end birdhouses you're so loving proud of for some reason.

Minimalist bird houses are an actual thing. This is a respected field with a long history behind it. Birds don't give a poo poo about your overproduced gaudy pre-made bird houses and in fact there are studies showing that they actively avoid them. If you're too old to build a birdhouse you shouldn't be keeping one at all because you certainly won't be able to keep it clean. BTW My latest

Yeah, that was also your latest the first time you posted it... in 2008. What's wrong, you been out of Elmer's for 6 years? I'll send you a tube if it'll get you to stop posting that abomination. I notice you never post any current pics of it, probably because it's a half-rotten squirrel den at this point.

You've had it out for me ever since you fell asleep against a log in the 2010 birdwatching competition in Ann Arbor. It's not my responsibility to wake you up, and I'm not going to sabotage my chances of winning by wasting valuable bird time on your dumb rear end. Maybe if you didn't get so drat drunk the night before, you wouldn't have these problems.

Because she wasn't conscious to have the opportunity. Much like Andy. Besides, one of the judges told me later that he agreed with me but was too much of a bitch to say anything at the time.

Sorry guys but as of today their will be no more discussion of dinosaurs on birdwatchingforums.com, you have the right to believe these are the ancestors of birds or were created by god but you don't have the right to cause a 20 page derail in the historical birdwatching thread & spam the thread with some man spreading unseemly orifices.

I thought this was going to be for jaded invertebrates. poo poo. When you're a starfish you've got 5 arms and everybody just assumes you've got a handle on everything. Well, I am tired of just barely hanging on. Gonna sit in this tide pool and wait for death to take me. The acidification of the oceans can't happen fast enough, IMO.

Gonna sit in this tide pool and wait for death to take me. Death will most likely come in the form of a seagull. You see, gulls or seagulls are seabirds of the family Laridae in the sub-order Lari. They are most closely related to the terns (family Sternidae) and only distantly related to auks, skimmers, and more distantly to the waders. Until the twenty-first century most gulls were placed in the genus Larus, but this arrangement is now known to be polyphyletic, leading to the resurrection of several genera. An older name for gulls is mew, cognate with German "Möwe", Danish "måge", Dutch "meeuw" and French "mouette"; this term can still be found in certain regional dialects. Gulls are typically medium to large birds, usually grey or white, often with black markings on the head or wings. They typically have harsh wailing or squawking calls, stout, longish bills, and webbed feet. Most gulls, particularly Larus species, are ground-nesting carnivores, which will take live food or scavenge opportunistically. Live food often includes crabs and small fish. Gulls have unhinging jaws which allow them to consume large prey. Apart from the kittiwakes, gulls are typically coastal or inland species, rarely venturing far out to sea. The large species take up to four years to attain full adult plumage, but two years is typical for small gulls. Large white-headed gulls are typically long-lived birds, with a maximum age of 49 years recorded for the herring gull. [*truncated text*] **poster went on for 37 more paragraphs, waxing lyrical on seagulls, expounding her superior knowledge of all things feathered; hoping that she gets her informative and educational post on the board before that drat Peter Viridiant churns out an (invariably inferior) knowledge post before her.**
