god notre dame de paris is so good

a bunch of people living their unrelated lives and somehow intertwining with each other without realising. and the rest of the world doesn't really notice and moves on with its own life. and they're all terrible people

#i kind of wanna read it again but idk if i have the attention span and also it's so good and nostalgic it might kill me forever #top 10 pieces of media that Actually Changed Me. top 5 even. mayhaps even top 3. top 2?? #no. 1 is still kenny's portrayal in the well and the lighthouse by effingbirds/petroica traversi. but nddp is very very close behind #okay anyway #notre dame de paris #ramble #nddp

Birb of the day: The Tomtit (Petroica macrocephala)! There are five subspecies of this bird and each inhabits a specific island or island group in New Zealand: North Island, South Island, the Chatham Islands, the Auckland Islands, or the Snares Islands. It munches on small invertebrates like spiders, beetles, and moths, as well as on the occasional fruit. It’s known for its curious personality, as it often perches on a branch to observe others or to scan the area for a meal.

Finals: Pretty Birds

Purple Honeycreeper vs Pink Robin

sources under the cut

Purple Honeycreeper (Cyanerpes caeruleus)

Cyanerpes, from the Ancient Greek 'kuanos' meaning "dark-blue" and 'herpes' meaning "creeper"; caeruleus meaning "dark blue" in Latin

eBird sightings: 29,552; IUCN Redlist Rating: Least Concern

Feeding on nectar is how this honeycreeper developed its bill shape- the bromeliad flowers it prefers are also shaped in this way. These small birds forage together in groups and are described as bold and inquisitive. They will often respond to the sight and sound of predators by mobbing, a behavior where multiple 'prey' animals surround a predator and try to annoy it away from the location.

Pink Robin (Petroica rodinogaster)

Not a European Robin or an American Robin, but a secret, third thing. (An Australian Robin)

eBird sightings: 4,981; IUCN Redlist Rating: Least Concern

The placement of Petroicidae, the family of the Pink Robin, on the songbird family tree is uncertain, but the current theory is that they are an early offshoot of the 'Passerida' parvorder, otherwise known as "advanced songbirds". This would put them outside of a lot of other Australian songbirds, who belong to the 'Corvida' parvorder. (A parvorder is basically as granular as you can get withing the 'Order' classification before you have to call something a 'Family' instead. Taxonomy is complicated)

Storm Hawks Bird OC Challenge - December 2023

Here we go! Bringing on December's bird for the challenge, this month we're looking at the pink robin (Petroica rodinogaster).

Native to southeastern Australia, these birds are surprisingly not all that closely related to european or american robins. Taxonomical research has placed them in the Passerida group of songbirds. The genus name 'petroica' comes from the ancient greek words for 'stone' and 'house', and the species name 'rodinogaster' derives from the words for 'pink' and 'belly'.

The loose deadline this month is Sunday the 31st of December, but because of how busy this month gets for everyone I'm not very strict about it.

Rules (also loose) are below the cut.

Minimum requirements for drawn entries to be put in the winner’s vote are a name, occupation, the character’s home/birth Terra and at least one paragraph (or about 100 words) of written backstory.

Minimum requirements for written (i.e. written dossiers without art, or mini-fics for the character) are 500 words including backstory and appearance. Feel free to make a mini-fic out of this challenge, I’ll make sure to link it with the final collage as well.

You’re not expected to create a character from scratch for this challenge. If you’ve got an older character concept that’s been collecting dust or that you’d like to take the opportunity to revamp, feel free! The goal of this challenge is to inspire people.

Collaborations are allowed! Same rules apply, the only addition is that you and your partner(s) just need to make note of who was responsible for what part of the character.

Make sure to tag me in your entries and also DM me with a link to your entry. Tumblr is not always reliable about notifications for this sort of thing, and I don’t want to risk missing anyone’s entries, so better safe than sorry.

The group collage of entries, and the (possible) winner’s vote are opt-in. Participation of those parts of this challenge are not mandatory.

The pink robin (Petroica rodinogaster) is native to south-eastern Australia. Unlike its European relatives, it is quite small in size, measuring about 13.5 cm long
