We have the Painted Bunting! It couldn't decide what color it wanted to be so it chose all of them.

That's so cute.

I'm a sucker for cute, particularly today because Stilton has gone away

She is spending the summer at my dad's house and I already miss her.

Ok, maybe I should say I wish Ohio had prettier birds.

Oh hey, that looks a bit like the rainbow lorikeet:

Kind of a bit similar to the Gouldian finch, too:

I guess the splendid fairy-wren doesn't really compare 'cause it only comes in blue and black:

Oh, rainbow bee-eater, don't you think you're over-doing it a little?

No, I said rainbow bee-eater, not rainbow pitta!

Hey, golden whistler, what are you doing here?

What? Eastern spinebill? Don't be silly, nobody's talking about you, you don't even have any blue on you:

Oh, what? Sorry America, I couldn't hear you over the sound of all Australia's awesome birds.

That fairy wren is awesome! It looks like a smaller, cuter blue jay.

At least we have cardinals

I mean they're bright fucking red as a warning to bitch predators, it says "I taste like really hot peppers"

Predators don't like that

CardinalFang · « **Reply #1711 on:** 19 Jun 2010, 09:53 »

Of course the Scarlet Tanager is one of my favorites. I like red and black, what can I say? Also it sounds like it should be a hero from an old radio serial. "All Evil-Doers fear the Scarlet Tanager!"

The good ol' Wood (or Carolina) Duck is nice as well

Ooo another multi-colored bird! The Broad-billed Hummingbird!

Of course you don't have to be multi-colored to be pretty as the Mountain Bluebird proves

Don't worry Indigo Bunting! I haven't forgotten you!

And no list could be complete without a Goldfinch!

Scott's Oriole are you trying to out gold the goldfinch?

Costa's Hummingdris shows us what a little splash of color can do!

Purple Gallinue, you sure do have an odd name but you're colorful enough to get away with it

Harry were you saying something? Oh, did you find animal life there that isn't trying to kill you? Good for you!

What ever happened to the no proper nouns rule?

It may have been a dream but I seem to remember this one time when they changed the rules to let any word count, providing you could give a good enough explanation of what it meant through the medium of interpretive dance.

I am always confused as to why Australia seems to have fathers day at a different time of year to everyone else ever. What made us think we could just go changing pointless holidays? (We have it in September, spreads things out a bit more I guess?)

PS Your father is AMAZING looking.

redglasscurls · « **Reply #1725 on:** 21 Jun 2010, 04:46 »

Dude my dad is the best. His beard makes hipster boys cry because they know theirs can't look as majestic. I have never seen his chin. Neither has my mother and their 30th wedding anniversary is next week.

This is almost true about my dad as well! My parents are working on 26 years I think. I can't remember though.

For reference, here are me and my dad at a wedding in 2008.

Also, fire spinning pictures! These are not the super-professional ones that got taken of me during Memorial Day weekend, but they'll do. They're from last week.

4-petal anti-spin flowers, poi in opposites (shutter speed caught half of each one, worked out well):

Triquetra (shutter speed was too fast to get the whole thing):

4-petal anti-spin flowers, poi going same direction (again, shutter speed too fast to get whole pattern):

Continuous assembly patterns aka CAPS:

I don't want to know, but it sounds like a few steps above carrying drunk Tyler up the stairs, but still below peeing on a trolley.
