Chunkus Maximus

After intensive research, mourning Doves have been renamed by the scientific community to Chunkus Maximus (Chunks in standard English).  Here are the field notes about the birds. 

Diagram 1-A shows a typical Chunkus Maximus. This particular chunk has landed near a ground feeder. It will push other birds out of the feeder, and then the chunk will proceed to sit in the food to  eat.















New findings show Chunkus Maximus has food receptors, meaning the birds always know where food can be found. Please see diagram 1-B. Please note the researcher had difficulty writing and spelling during fieldwork.















Tips for identifying Chunkus Maximus:

1- When driving in the evening, look at power lines. You will know when you spot one.

House madness

Peaches loves Happy Huts*, which are fuzzy triangular houses for birds. The only issue with the Happy Hut is Peaches gets extremely aggressive about her hut (she thinks it's a nest). We call this behavior "House Madness." This is Peaches in her Happy Hut (notice she has Lump Head*) Crazy Eye: A symptom of House Madness Crazy Eye makes Peach look like she might assassinate you at any moment. Don't look at her house or talk about it with her. I say this because I used to joke with her by telling her I was going into her house. She would scrabble inside...and plot. The next time we would let her out after the jokes, she would bite me. I don't do that anymore.  Here is photographic evidence of Crazy Eye; *See Cuteamus Fruitamus for more information on Lump Head

Got some Chinese take-out the other day, and this was the fortune I received from the fortune cookie...Do not despair (it's apparently criminal)! I should be done with the line art and coloring by the weekend. :)
