the spotted pardalote, also known as the diamondbird, is a small passerine bird found throughout eastern & southern australia. they are brightly colored and easily recognizable, but often hard to identify in the field due to their quick movements and small size; adult birds are only 8 to 10 centimetres (3.1 to 3.9 in) in length. the spotted pardalote has unique nesting behavior that allows them to create a safe home for their young; they dig an underground tunnel, with an entrance point placed along a riverbank or slope, to nest within. the internal chamber, which is lined with shredded bark, is often higher than the entrance point (presumably to protect the young from flooding). these pardalotes lay one clutch of 3-4 eggs a year. while spotted pardalotes are still relatively common, their numbers are declining, particularly in urban areas; due to their shy natures, they may tend to desert heavily populated zones.
put rainbow laces on all my shoes recently which is fun and sexy but has the side effect that i have gotten multiple “i like your shoelaces” from strangers and like. i cant NOT “i stole them from the president” in return. just in case. but its recieved mostly awkward laughs and looks of confusion. embarrasing myself in public out here over my damn shoelaces.
this holiday season, remember that you don’t have to go and it’s perfectly okay to lie to your family about why you’re not going
you are welcome to use me as your Bunbury and tell your relations you must visit your dear friend Algernon, who is in terrible health and currently convalescing in the countryside
