there's a chickadee w/o a tail! dad says, "i'm going to call him stumpy" we've been seeing him regularly this last month, visiting the feeders just like nothing was wrong.
but i know its got to affect him! tails are very important to birds. they provide lift, stearing, and breaking for a bird's flight. they provide balance for the acrobatic chickadee. but this little guy doesnt seem to have a problem! he must be very clever to compensate! i think this is just a sign of diversity that may not be so essential to life, but instead exists for diversity and to show creativity.
he's so cute!!! chickadees are so round anyways, like a little bouncy ball. now he looks so much more like a little ball!
