Paraglider and black vulture chilling

I NEVER get tired of this video. It would be fantastic if the bird was just flying near him, but the fact it feels safe and comfortable enough to land ON his paraglider, isn't startled when he pets it, and is NIBBLING HIS SHOES... blessed moment, absolutely fabulous, 10/10 gold stars.

Okay but the bird isn't just nibbling

Note that it doesn't start nibbling until he starts smoothing its feathers.

They're grooming each other.

This is called parahawking! That vulture is tame -- it’s wearing jesses (a leather tie around the leg that a falconer will use to hold a bird when it’s on the glove). In fact that vulture is employed. Parahawking birds seek out thermals the same way they would naturally, allowing paragliders to follow them in the process.

Vultures are often used for parahawking both because of their attraction to thermals, and because vultures, as scavengers, are comparatively gentler and more sociable than birds of prey!

I work with a black vulture and they do not get enough love!! Virgil is one of the sweetest, most intelligent birds I've worked with-- he will hop up on my shouder to preen me while I clean! He loves to play tug of war with towels and shoe laces! He understands human speech even though he can't vocalize like a crow can, and knows that he's playing too rough when I say "gentle". He also gets mad if I don't tell him "goodbye" before I leave 😭 I love him so much.

Here he is "helping" me collect eggs (really he just wanted attention, which, relatable)

Great news everyone. There was a kitten wandering in the drive thru at work and my inner warrior cats kid tried to be a hero and capture him.

I have now suffered multiple puncture wounds and have to go to the emergency room.

Me: I shall become his mother and gain his trust

Me talking to an animal control officer five minutes later: he is a nasty horrid little boy and I am bleeding heavily

Animal control officer on the phone: So he’s in your car with you?

Me: Um. It’s his car now and he’s very mad at me.

Second animal control officer: oh you captured him and got him in your car? He’s friendly?

Me, my right hand completely wrapped in paper towels: wouldn’t say that

Urgent Care Nurse: Wow it’s strange he managed to get you so many times.

Me: I uh. Did not let go.

You vibe as someone prone to toxic relationships

People on tumblr will just say anything huh.

Oh cmon, "he hurt me a lot cause i couldn't let go" absolutely has double interpretation.

Me, holding a cat (of unknown gender) as it repeatedly digs its little teeth deep into my flesh: Is this… too… yuri?

i’m begging you on my hands and knees… is there context to the jazzprowl doodle? like did you have a particular scene in mind when you drew it?

and have you perchance drawn any more doodles of a similar nature?

jealous/hissy prowl protecting jazz is my goddamn jam, your art is gorgeous, and i cannot stop staring at it 🥲

^^ this doodle was largely inspired by a scene from this fic!

their dynamic was super sweet and fun and if you like fake dating + workplace antics + some really nice background culture and worldbuilding things, i'd highly recommend giving it a read ;DD
