We’re working hard to make a difference for the threatened Western snowy plover. Since the Aquarium’s plover rehabilitation program began in 2000, we’ve successfully released over 140 birds and counting!

Do you believe in angels, little bird?

you’re in this… meat sack with no feathers, no claws, and no beak, but at least you have the memories of when you weren’t.

Hey birds! I wanted to share a fantastic flight and bird life simulator that is free on Roblox. It’s called Bird Simulator by Avian Skies. You begin as a house finch, and level up from there. As you achieve higher levels and earn coins, you can choose to be different species like crows, eagles, hummingbirds, owls, and more! Each species has its own unique food set that you must forage and/or hunt for. You can also zoom into your bird so that you are flying and moving from your point of view.

You can fly in all directions, turn on a dime, perch, call, glide & soar, and dive. It is a survival-oriented game, meaning you must avoid predators and find food and water to live. The possibilities are virtually endless, and it is a very fun, free way to simulate birdy feelings. Enjoy!

what kind of dog is this

[thexenobiologist]

My favorite part of this video is how the cockatoo is not only mimicking the sound of a dog barking, it’s mimicking the motion too!

Also, as I was typing this, my dogs heard the video and started barking as well. I can only imagine the chaos this bird must wreak in its own home.

the forest is singing for you. the wind harmonizing with the trees. the birds calling lullabies into the ears of any creature that will listen. hooves hitting the ground like drumbeats. howls of glory. chirps from insects that just want to remind you that they are there, they are important. the forest breathes music. it’s singing you to sleep.

i am watching over this orchestra. i am the conductor. i will defend these beings with all of my soul.

listen to the melody as you sleep, my friend. the forest is singing for you.
