Dude, ix-nay on the oice-vay.

This one is just fascinating to me. Is that a stork? If so, is that the stork that dropped that kid off with his family when he was born? Could the stork just not let go of the child he was supposed to deliver?

It looks like he is trying to cheer the dude up by doing things the dude thought were hilarious when he was a toddler. (Not that the dude looks sad. Just that the bird seems to be trying really hard to make the dude happy or something.)

Amazingly enough, I’m not stoned. Just very tired.

It's a pelican. Pelicans deliver babies in the Southern hemisphere.

Damnit! I knew stork didn’t feel right, but the only other bird coming to mind was sea gull, and I knew that was wrong.

“Billy, you don’t seem like yourself today.”
“I’m good, Pelican. I was just out late last night. Once I finish my breakfast and grab some coffee, I’ll be fine.”
“You suuuure? ‘Cause it looks to me like somebody forgot a very important part of their ensemble.”
“No. I didn’t forget anything. Even remembered to wear pants today and everything.”
“Hmmm. I don’t knoooow...I think that outfit could really use a...”
“I promise, I’m fine. Just gotta finish my brea—-“
“....PELICAN BILL HAT!”
“I said I was fine.”
“Don’t worry about paying for that meal,Billy!”
“Don’t say it.”
“You can put it on my BILL!”
“I don’t pay for this meal.”
“Get it, Billy?Put it on my BILL?”
“Ok. That’s enough. I’m heading to work now.”
“‘Cause I’m a pelican...”
“Nice seeing you, Pelican.”
“And i have a bill!”

that’s how they scratch their bill sac?

I can’t believe I found another “Omnomnomnom” bird video.



And here’s a pelican trying to perfect its impression of a human. I think it was studying the kid to get pointers after it realized that quietly standing in line wasn’t going to yield a bounty of either fish or chips.

It's so polite

I know that feeding it will only bring it back, possibly with friends who might not be so polite, but I'm not sure I'd be able to avoid giving it something.

If nothing else, "our fish is so fresh we have a pelican as a regular customer" would be a hell of a brag.

the pelican is cute but do know that if it was larger or the man smaller, it would devour him.

I think you could say that of 99% of bird species, tbh. The 1% is pigeons, who prefer us alive for our ability to prepare delicious, delicious chips.

Murderborb!

Dude, ix-nay on the oice-vay.

They are too small to be a threat to our house pets, though. Tiny owls are the cutest murderborbs and I miss sitting on the patio of my last apartment, looking for the screechowls. The one that came out nightly to hunt found a mate and stopped coming every night to hang out by my apartment to hunt and listen to whatever I was playing on YouTube for her.

But I am pretty sure she flew closer to say “hi” one morning at 4 o clock after I got to enjoy watching her mate try to perch on a branch that was actually weed growing out of tree. He could not stay upright and that was when I got to witness a tiny owl cursing under his breath. (He was making tiny murmuring bird sounds as he tried to stay upright. It was hilarious. )

https://youtu.be/wH0HgGWa2e0

My screechowl buddy didn’t have her horns up very often, since she didn’t feel especially threatened by my presence.

I think this one is a western screech owl?
