A four month old qilik in the hands of an elowey caretaker, both of the Ulelilwa people of the western White Sea

Qilik have a relatively short period of helplessness after hatching and can run at a couple weeks of age, but take quite a while to moult into full feathering. This has no apparent survival benefit (and makes them physically needier) and is likely an indirect result of an extended infantile period during which complex language is rapidly acquired. A qilik chick generally will not have fully developed juvenile feathering until a year to a year and a half in age.

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!

Posts that make me scared my boss might throw me. :(

Don't worry, I'm sure your boss wouldn't commit such a heinous act of henchman abuse!

And I wouldn't either @dont-call-me-doggy and @thesilliest-evildoer

He wouldn’t do it but like. the post scares me.

Gargoyles don’t land well. :(

did you know gargoyles are called that because originally they were a water drainage system for castle rooftops and they'd make a gargling noise (and smelled really bad bc they were filtration devices)?

yeah yeah yeah the fully stone ones.

WHY IS THE ORIGINAL POST REPLACED WITH TWO DUDES KISSING WHEN YOU CLICK ON IT?
