It simply does not fit the bill. they are venomous enough on their own to kills most predators. If they allowed natural selection to take place, they would have developed a more obvious form of mimicry - this would indeed be müllerian mimicry But that's obviously not what's going on.

These practical and functional examples of public art were “designed by local artists and chosen in partnership with local community members.” But this “tiny, hyperactive songbird” is not found only high in the tree canopy. It also found much lower, adorning some of Portland’s public trash cans.

For example, the federal government owns less than 1% in Connecticut but nearly 80% in Nevada. For example, migratory waterfowl make extensive use of national wildlife refuges during migration or as wintering grounds. For example, most of the world’s Black-footed and Laysan Albatross and Ashy Storm-Petrel breed on these islands.

In short, I truly believe that there still are, maybe not plenty but a good number of species that to this day go unnoticed to the scientific eye, but are surely known to the indigenous peoples (the best example is the newly discovered giant rat from the Solomon Islands). The Cocha Antshrike was one of these species not long ago.

A lot of art created via AI is truly awful – see the example above. I used a free version of Hotpot – they want the work to be attributed to their company, but frankly, I am not sure this will drive up their sales. Anyway, the reason for showing this is to indicate that 10,000 Birds is still looking for writers.

As for an exact definition of a cartoon bird, I am afraid I have to use the old line once used to define pornography – “I know it when I see it” … Cartoon birds have a wide geographical range – even wider than the examples shown here.

For example, in May, I was on the Maryland shore for a wedding and submitted several checklists for Maryland, Delaware, and the District of Columbia. The links are clickable and sortable, so I can, for example, instantly see that I observed just one Worm-eating Warbler on a single checklist and that I also submitted an audio file.

Other of Higgins’ examples are not so familiar but make perfect sense, pun intended, and make for fascinating reading. By senses, Higgins means more than the standard five (touch, taste, smell, sight, hearing) identified by Aristotle. Scientists estimate there are twenty or thirty separately identifiable human senses.

And while this poisonous species is usually red and spotted, older examples can lose their spots and take on an orange hue. So I’m glad I didn’t taste my first examples. But I also discovered that they have a close relative, the Fly Agaric ( Amanita muscaria), that is deadly. The deadly Fly Agaric.

As grumpy as these daily 30-degree temperature swings are making me, you have to wonder how the birds are reacting.

I have to admit though ,that if for example you already posses an ATX/STX mono system , then the price for just the BTX eyepiece module is kind of acceptable.
