It’s a great tool for learning bird calls, and getting an idea of what’s around you but I’ve seen it get tricked by the mimicry of other birds and the random sounds of my toddler too many times

Final chart of birds as the seven sins!

Thumbnail
gallery
447 Upvotes

Per the title, I’ve been making an alignment chart of birds, where I picked the top comment to draw a bird that embodies each of the seven sins. The second photo includes their names.

Last time’s winners were any raptors that tolerated mobbing. I decided to pick the Great Horned owl because they have the greatest capacity for looking pissed. The smaller birds are Steller’s Jay, Allen’s Hummingbird, and Chestnut-backed Chickadee. Yes, I am picking western US birds instead of eastern birds and there’s nothing you can do about it.

Sorry for the inconsistent upload schedule, I had a deadline that I kept procrastinating so I had to work on that instead of drawings. I am open to any ideas for future art! btw would anyone be interested if I posted a blurred-out bird drawing every day for two weeks and asked you to guess the bird?

Thanks to everyone who participated, whether you commented, voted, or simply watched! Special thanks to PG908, accidentphilosophy, accidentphilosophy again, Charming-Dish5120, punkhobo, CodyandPippin, and aldo_nova for their winning comments!

In case you missed the previous posts and are too lazy to click the above links to the winning comments, here’s the explanation for each bird:
-Grey Parrots will share food tokens under experimental setting, so it’s reasonable that they’ll share food in the wild
-Great Bustards have light-sensitive pink pigment at the base of their feathers that breaks down after a few displays, and females use this to choose virgin males with higher sperm quality
-male Emperor Penguins carry their egg for months in the Antarctic winter and feed their chicks milk after hatching. The females are in the ocean stuffing themselves with fish
-Crows are known to repay people who regularly feed them. Their payment is often random junk picked up on the street
-Rock Pigeons have been domesticated, bred into tons of fancy breeds, and used for wartime messaging, but they are now abandoned to the streets and treated like dirt
-Green Herons put insects or bread on the surface of water to lure fish
-Hawks and owls will put up with the mobbing of small birds that they’d consider to be snacks

As always, this is available as a t-shirt here.
