Actually ... they are not that small! Having been born and raised mostly in big cities, it wasn't until I was 28 years old that I found out birds actually had sex! I thought maybe it was like fish did it.
One day I was walking along a bird sanctuary in Ca. and I saw two ducks going at it - I was shocked!
They aren't very thoughtful lovers though. Duck gang rape is a real thing and I pick up injured hens several times each year. A group of horny drakes will even hump a dead duck if nothing else is around.
Intelligent yes gentle, no. Sea cows (manatees) are gentle. No gang rape with them. Yes, I spend l lot of time at the dock. Maybe Paul will weigh in. I don't spend as much time on the water as he does, but no sea cows up nawth. Terry Fla.
I just commented on his latest post. It was outstanding. I comment here more than anywhere else. Still thinking about two Wiserangels. Oh my! Terry Fla.
One of the non migrating water fowl is the ki ki bird of northern Minnesota. He is about the size of your average Mallard, but with a dick like a donkey. Yes, he flies, but not well, and when he lands on a frozen lake, you can hear him for miles, "kee kee kee keeripes thats cold."

timbo, now all I can think about is Long Duk Dong from "Sixteen Candles". I'm such an 80s girl.

ReplyDeleteI've witnessed duck gang rape, Paladin, it was horrible. And I can't believe PETA doesn't have a program to teach the drakes to not rape...
ReplyDeletePETA? Get WC on it. I hear he has the inside track with them.
ReplyDeleteDolphins do pretty much the same thing as ducks and biker gangs. Not many dolphins in the panhandle though.

Terry, I thought dolphins were intelligent and gentle mammals of the sea. Or were you talking about the Miami Dolphins?

I don't know if Paul has ever commented over here. He's more than welcome, but he probably has reservations.

Thinking too much about that will make you go blind. Or crazy. I forget which.
