This bird is watching you note.
I got to visit the ostrich farm today and I learned quite a lot. Not just how ridiculously fast and strong they are - but also that they act purely on instinct because their brain is literally smaller than their eyeballs xD. Fascinating creatures, stuuuuupidly tall (this one was ~2.20m) and really, really interesting. Sadly though, they can't be quite domesticated (their brain cant even fit a name LOL) so I couldn't quite pet them - woulda risked getting beak attacked x) And good lord do they have strong beaks... The farmer's stories about their deeds told me more than I might've liked about how well they can use that thing. xD
Anyway. Ostriches are cool, Nostr is awesome.
...and yes, I did hold back on making a "small brain" joke. Wouldn't've been fair. ^^;
