There is nothing like living in an interspecies flock to learn about different approaches to fitness and nutrition. For example, featherless beings often like to watch fitness activities (on a large comfy seating device) while tending to their nutrition (here, flavorful salty crunchy things are often the nutrition of choice). Beings with feathers, on theContinueContinue reading “Day 237: Nutritional Fitness”

Beings with feathers who study featherless culture quickly realize the importance of something called a “bag.” Central to nearly all activities in the lives of featherless beings, the bag sometimes gets as much attention – if not more – as the beings themselves! This is never more true than during travel (which they like to doContinueContinue reading “Day 236: Bag Check”

It is always good to be first. First in prettiness, first in feathery-ness, first in cuteness….and first in line. Even if you aren’t sure why you’re in line, you want to be first so you can decide if you want whatever-it-is and nab it. In the same way, when your large featherless assistant brings homeContinueContinue reading “Day 235: First in Line”

Some games are so fun and engaging they transcend language. And species. Take “bobbing,” for example. Here, the only aspect that tends to change frequently is what is being “bobbed” for (on account of the size and weight of the “bobber” relative to the “bobbed”). Young and not-so-young featherless beings, for instance (being rather robustContinueContinue reading “Day 234: Bobbing for Cheerios”

If there is one thing about flock life both feathered and featherless beings learn early on, it is this – if you see a prize delicacy, you’d better claim it ASAP! Otherwise, a flock mate might ingest it before you do (disaster).

The best supermodels (like the best actors) make their job look so easy. No matter how unruly the props may be, how demanding the fans can be, how difficult the conditions become, somehow the final result seems….effortless. For instance, maybe you are a famous super(bird)model and you show up one day for your scheduled shoot.ContinueContinue reading “Day 231: Behind the Modeling Scenes”

When you have feathers, it can pay off to ramp up the cuteness when you notice your large featherless assistant beginning meal preparations. Here, it actually works in your favor that she only knows how to make two things: steamed veggies (blech), anything that goes in the flat shiny reflective device (the one you lookContinueContinue reading “Day 230: Hot Dog!”

In today’s modern age, many social niceties have been all but forgotten. For example, there is the time-honored practice of making introductions (especially before one party ingests the other). Here, not only is it simply polite to introduce yourself, but you can learn a lot from a name.

When you have feathers and spend lots of time with your featherless flock, being small and round and pear-shaped translates in their eyes as being very cute and pretty. To potential predators, however, it may convey a completely different meaning (mostly having to do with appetizers and/or main courses, depending on the size of the predator and theContinueContinue reading “Day 228: A Very Tall Lookout”
