I hope this message finds you well.
My favorite bird is a Cassowary, one of the few birds that could likely kill you if it wanted to.
Nuthatch. Just a happy little bird.
Junco. Comes around to keep me company when the others go south.
Two favorite birds come to mind!
I think pigeons are really neat. When I lived in denser cities I loved seeing the different patterns and colors. White with black speckles (I think of them as “cookies and cream”) are my favorite.
My other favorite is the nuthatch! They’re so cute. They hop down tree trunks and are really fun to watch! They make little peeping noises as they go, too. They’re super cute.
I have many favorite birds it turns out. Tufted titmice, dark eyed juncos… female cardinals are so beautiful too! I love birds.
Also, recruiters are seriously the worst!
Hi OP,
I hope this message finds you well,
This sounds horrible to experience,
Best of luck,
Me
Quetzal! I learned about it from my Guatemalan Spanish tutor once. Beautiful green bird
Holy smokes! I've never seen anything like it! Gorgeous!
Yeah it's very cute
Fun fact: it's the national bird of Guatemala and the name of their currency is also Quetzal. Apparently old indigenous chiefs would wear a quetzal feather on their head. Also it's endangered.
Raven, Just always liked them. Ever since I was little I'd imitate their caws and clicks. They seemed intrigued and often followed me around.
Always loved hummingbirds, bluebirds, woodpeckers and all raptors. Ravens seemed to like me back.
Do you see ravens often where you are? I've never seen them outside of zoos. When I say raven, I mean the larger varieties since people often intermix the terms. We have loads of crows. Corvidae are great. So smart. If you feed them regularly, they'll bring you gifts! Same with other varieties like blue jays. I've also been able to meet some kinds of magpie over the years as well, which are a beautiful variety. 💜
Raven's are everywhere here. Big beautiful bastards!
I do feed them. When I catch a mouse in a trap I usually throw it on my roof as a free meal for the birds. My roof is rather high so it often attracts great horned owl too. Rarely do I get to see them but they can make a bit of a thump when they land. Pretty big sky cat.
When I'm out lake camping if I see a raven i might give them a fish head if I have one. Try not to give them people food.
Super cool. Owls are the best. Horned owls especially so.
I was coming home from the bar pretty late once and there was this stump in the middle of the road, so I slowed down. As my truck got closer the stump turned and looked at me and spread it's wings. Swear it covered a whole lane. With a couple flaps it was airborne carrying it's dinner. Biggest bird I ever saw.
Had a friend that used to rehabilitate owls locally. In a barn that in my younger years I had to clean up for community service. Any way I got to meet some baby great horned owls. They are damn cute!
Heck ya. They really are incredible. They even have their own community on lemmy!

Took me a real long time to realize it was Superb Owl 🦉 and not Superbowl 🏈. 🤦🏽
In my previous job I used that to greet my boss because they were an absolute piece of shit.
Like verbally? Because this sounds like an excellent way to greet the suits at work.

¹its somehow funnier than "bitch" lol
For some odd reason this makes me think of the movie Office Space:
Peter: Let me ask you something. When you come in on a Monday does anyone ever say to you, “Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays”.
Lawrence: No. No, Man. Shit, no, man. I believe you’d get your ass kicked saying something like that.
