Let’s talk about Nightjars
they are these wonderful tiny predatory birds
With great camouflage for multiple environments
And lovely plumage dependent on their species
BUT BEST OF ALL IS THEIR MOUTHS, which look small when their beaks are closed (they’ve even got cute lil’ whiskers!)
BUT ARE ACTUALLY HUUUUGE
BEST BIRD
Let us also be sure to mention that the scientific name for the group of nightjars is Caprimulgiformes. “Caprimulgus” is Latin for “goatsucker,” a name they still have, and they were so named because in their twilight flights to catch insects attracted to livestock, it seemed to humans that they were drinking the milk from their goats. And you know what the word for “goatsucker” is in Spanish? “Chupacabra.”
Oh, also, if you shine a light into their large eyes at night, they reflect back red.
More little animations illustrating gifs and photos of funny animals we can find on the internet and that I really love ^^
Animals (especially birds ^^) are a great source of inspiration =D

A look at the amazing book that I- The Melon King -wrote all by myself, with no help what-so-ever. It was all me.
reminder series: bleak yet comforting thoughts.
i specifically chose animals that are (or believed to be) extinct due to human influence: thylacine, great auk, baiji, west african black rhino, golden toad, dodo, passenger pigeon, and quagga. there are many other species i could have included. the plants are also based on extinct species, but i found much less information about extinct plants, unfortunately.
the text doesn’t necessarily relate to each animal or their extinction. it’s all basically the same idea: let’s all be nice to each other, because today, the universe is vast and incomprehensible, we are all suffering, we are all going to die, and we’re all in this together. for today.
i’m busy for a couple weeks with conventions, but after that i’m considering a companion series with ancient extinct animals, so feel free to send me your favorites :)
