  • Female phalaropes are more colorful than males, and the females court the males. The drably colored males tend the eggs and nest, after the female lays them.

(FOR @l-mop)

Can’t find a good photo of them on Tumblr to reblog so I guess I gotta do it myself. Here is a Four-banded Sandgrouse (Pterocles quadricinctus) male (image 1) and female (image 2).

I want to put them in my mouth (I am not a jackal). They look like they smell of balsa wood.

ID: A TikTok by @/atlasdovy captioned, “Found my bird wanting to play Harp 🕊️.”

The bird plucks at the strings from the base of the harp, and after perching on a hand, continues to pluck at the strings, cooing and shivering it’s wings. End ID.
