Baby bird season is incoming and I’d like to remind everyone that birds do not have a significant sense of smell. Bird parents will not reject birdlets because you have handled them.

If you see smol birbs with few or no feathers on the ground, you can safely put them back into their nest, bird parents will still care for them.

If you see smol birbs with some or most feathers on the ground, please leave them there, as bird parents are probably nearby watching and feeding.

nakey bird = accidentally fell out, is cold and scared, put back in nest! if you can’t reach the nest, try to put it on a wide branch or fork so predators can’t get at it as easily.

scruffy feather bird = starting to try the fly thing, not very good at it. only put in nest/branch if predators abound, i.e. you have four outdoor cats and they’re licking their chops.

fluffy feather bird = smol fly guy! do nothing. can probably get away from predators and will flip its shit if you pick it up.

Reblogging this because I’d always heard the ‘Don’t touch a distressed bird its mom will reject it’ thing treated as fact before now, I didn’t realise it wasn’t true…

It’s confirmed that the oil from human hands will make bird feathers fall off so please if you have to touch the bird be careful and put it to its home

I have no idea where you heard this myth, but it is not true at all… There is no component in a human’s skin oil that will cause feathers to fall off of a bird at any life stage. The oil may stay on the feather until the bird cleans it off, but feathers are actually attached under their skin very strongly and are not going to suffer harm from being touched. I say this as someone who has raised hundreds of fowl and several baby wild birds over the last two decades.

DUDE IT MAKES MY FUTURE ZOOLOGIST ASS SO HAPPY TO SEE THINGS LIKE THIS

Made me happy to know I’ve been helping and not hurting

Don’t forget these things are taught to children for a reason. Kids tend not to have the dexterity or judgement necessary for this. This is meant to make sure kids don’t grab baby birds to play with them.

today i found out that victor hugo has had more sex than possibly almost any other human that has lived on this planet. 

he had so much sex his biographers straight up gave up trying to document all of his sexual partners. he was reported to fuck up to 3-9 times a day. He had a secret sex diary written in code. He had “official” and “unofficial” mistresses. One estimate was that he had ~200 sexual partners in two years. 

Icon. 

don’t forget that on the day of his funeral all the brothels in Paris were closed because every single prostitute in the whole goddamn city was busy mourning him

Hey quick question what the fuck

the man reported on his hookups in his diary using latin code words and 2 million people attended his funeral, if that isnt balling idk what is
