My bird died a few hours ago he lived to be ten which is really old for a little finch I’m gonna miss him so much you could really see his age in these photos

[lesbiten]

if tumblr permits, i would like to introduce the newest member of the family, birch!

juniper needed a friend and i was going to wait until this summer to get him one but i wasnt happy with how he was acting (bored, lazy, frantic at times) and figured if my parents were fine with it i should go ahead and do it now. birch has been with us for a little over a month now and they get along great. they're rarely more than a foot away from each other and love exploring and stealing my things to make nests together. theyve already reportedly stolen two worm on a strings to add to their nest. love wins

I just had the best experience of my life

So context, I have six finches, two zebbies, four societies, all but two societies raised from the egg.

Ok so I woke up today to something pulling my hair. A little concerning at first, but it was then that I felt bird feet hop across my face. It was three of my birds, and they were moving from the base of my hair to the bottom. They were either preening, or just playing with my hair, either way, it is the freaking best day.

A male zebra finch and society finch on a feeder!

[mynameis-a]

me: i don't get symbolism in stuff the only interpretation i can see is the literal one thats right in your face

also me: ok so since theyre the finch family they are depicted in these paintings as different types of finches and this guy is represented as a zebra finch and zebra finches are some of the worst parents when it comes to finches so therefore this guy was most likely neglectful to his children because why else would they make him a zebra finch when nobody else is

Excerpt from this Op-Ed from The New Republic:

The terrifying truth of the climate and mass extinction crises is that we don’t understand all that we stand to lose. And without extraordinary acts of imagination and foresight, as a society, we won’t understand what’s being lost till it’s too late—at which time we’ll have to look back at what we might have done with a heartbreak and remorse that have no remedy. 

So we need to protect the living world with the best tool we have: the law.

Evolution is slow, while the climate is changing at a breakneck pace. For organisms like elephants and whales, who can live as long as we do, or trees, who live much longer, both the path to potential adaptation to this rapidly morphing planet and the path to our understanding may stretch beyond any time frame that could help us to save them before the clock strikes midnight. 

Small animals, whose lives and reproductive cycles tend to be shorter, can be more readily studied across generations. Some researchers have seen signs of resilience: Mother zebra finches in Australia, one scientist found, warn the embryos inside their eggs of warming conditions outside by uttering certain calls. The chicks those embryos hatch into have lower birth weights than those who weren’t exposed to the mothers’ calls, which helps the young birds stay cool in hot weather. Lizards in Miami appeared to lower their cold-tolerance thresholds in response to a cold snap in 2020, which might defend against future environmental fluctuations; certain male dragonflies grow paler in warmer weather, losing some of the bright ornamentation that attracts females but making them less vulnerable to overheating.

But examples of seemingly speedy accommodation are tiny flags fluttering on a battlefield where the overwhelming outlook for biodiversity is catastrophic. Instead of shifting gradually over thousands or even millions of years, environments are being transformed so fast that adaptive mechanisms don’t have the opportunity to kick in. 

In many cases, due to human-caused habitat loss and other pressures, of which the unstable climate is a massive threat multiplier, strategies that may have saved other life forms historically are no longer available to them: Pikas, for instance—cute little squeaking mammals native to western North America and Asia—may be able to move up a mountain to reach colder climes as the lower elevations get too hot, but if they reach the peak and it gets hot too, well … there’s nothing left for that wingless pika but the bare blue sky. The desert where I live is getting too hot even for arid-adapted wildlife—a lizard that had thrived in Arizona’s Mule Mountains for three million years is now newly believed extinct, and plants from the small acuña cactus to the Seussian Joshua tree are struggling to hang on.

The list of our dependencies on the other beings with whom we’ve coevolved is nearly infinite. So visionary policy is called for to protect those other beings and systems—not only for their intrinsic and cultural value but because they’re our life support, worth far more to our continued welfare intact than liquidated for short-term profit. If the goal is a livable future, for which we need to achieve a paradigm shift from exploitation to conservation, the services these networks of life supply need to be fully and properly valued. Their right to exist has to be enshrined in law.

Both domestically and internationally, species and ecosystems need to be endowed with legal standing to give local and native stewards the tools to save them from the depredations of industry in the short term and sustain them over the long. 

Luckily, bestowing legal standing on extra-human parties isn’t a fanciful idea: The U.S. Supreme Court did exactly that in the 2010 case known as Citizens United, when it declared that corporations were legal persons—a decision that hobbled American democracy but also set a neat precedent for extending legal personhood to nonhuman entities. And corporations are clearly more abstract and disembodied than animals: Just a couple of weeks ago scientists and philosophers from many nations published the New York Declaration on Animal Consciousness, which argues for the likelihood of consciousness in all vertebrates and many invertebrates, including cephalopods and insects.

Sorry I've been quiet about my art; I've both been very busy and dealing with the loss of my finch Honey the other day. I decided to draw memorial pieces for her and some of my other finches who passed away from 2018-2019 whom I loved very dearly.

I’ll never forget my little feathered babies and each of their silly quirks. Honey kept laying eggs trying for a clutch she sadly never got to have while also bathing a lot and cuddling her cage mates. Bee was a quiet old lady who loved napping with Honey and her mate badger, as well as eating millet. Cal was a noisy boisterous boy who played beep-beep with anyone who beeped at him and sang all the time. Dave was quiet and shy, but sweet and very trusting of me and cal’s neighbor buddy.

I’ll miss them all dearly, but never forget them ❤️

Ok so i exchanged the birds and the new one i got is a boy!! He sounds so cute and he’s quieter than my other society finch (spinch) and my zebra finches (birdie and sesame) he keeps trying to escape the cage so he can go play w the others he’s so interested in them! Also when we got him out of the box to get him into the temporary cage he flew out and flew around our room and didn’t bonk into any walls or anything and he was just looking at everything and then he flew to the big cage and spinch was so hyped to see his new friend!! Idk what to name him yet tho but it’s gotta be something cute and something i can hold a note on bc my birds like it when i say their name and keep holding a note they go crazy for it
