The Cuckoo Cuculus canorus has a bad reputation because of its habit of laying its eggs on the nests of other birds, who then raise their young. But in south-west Europe there is a bird that kicks out the sitting tenants and takes over the nest altogether. The White-rumped Swift Apus caffer , a tropical African breeding species, was only discovered breeding in Europe in the 1960s.

There was a frog on my front door and when I walked up it just stared at me and followed me when I walked other directions and then it jumped directly at me. I'm just asking because it was so freaky and they usually just jump away.

I have never posted here, so I hope this is ok. I struggle with depression and lost my best not a few years ago and have been pet free ever since. One of the things that helps start my day positively is seeing animal pics and videos. One of my favorite themes is unusual animal friendships…it just feels so wholesome and makes me feel it’s possible to get along despite differences.
