are the blue things bottle caps and syringes?

Septimaeus@infosec.pub on 24 Nov 18:27 next collapse

How else could they activate the 13th chevron?

Artyom@lemm.ee on 24 Nov 23:57 collapse

There’s only 9 chevrons

Septimaeus@infosec.pub on 25 Nov 00:19 collapse

That’s what they want you to think!

Mothra@mander.xyz on 24 Nov 23:18 collapse

Absolutely milk bottle caps. It looks like syringes too but there could be plastic straws mixed in. Needs more pixels. Bottle caps are common in bowerbird decor, I’ve seen blue clothes pegs too

macrocarpa@lemmy.world on 26 Nov 05:21 collapse

Plastic straws, clothes pegs, bottle caps, bottle rings.

Get her a stick. Bitches love sticks.

atomicorange@lemmy.world on 24 Nov 21:08 next collapse

This would 100% work on me. I would love it if a guy took me to see a bowerbird. Or if he was a bowerbird.

I love bird mating rituals. The bowerbird’s rituals is one of my favorites

I have absolutely no idea what’s going on here.

Are those supposed to be condoms or trash?

macrocarpa@lemmy.world on 26 Nov 05:20 collapse

It’s a bower bird performance centre. Quite literally. They make an area where they can perform for a mate.

They like the colour blue so collect heaps of blue things and decorate their bower with them.

This one has got a bunch of milk bottle caps, milk bottle cap rings, blue plastic straws and what look like pegs.

It sounds funny till you think about stuff that humans do for exactly the same reason (to be “interesting” to a prospective partner)

Dupree878@lemmy.world on 26 Nov 07:18 collapse

I’ve never heard of a bowerbird. I googled it and it seems anyone not up on Pacific avians might have the same confusion
