Now just fill their mouths with whatever to silence them

I wonder how often they accidentally poison their children. Human civilization probably has killed many a baby bird.

What was the instinct to reality progression like for you

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

I'll be honest. There was more planning. And preparation. But the fourth panel is still a pretty good summary of the experience.

No problem, just shove them out of the nest.

You joke, but birds commonly kick their weakest hatchlings out of the nest when food runs short
