A few months ago, like 6 bird couples made nests in our backyard. One made its home in this hanging fake plant. The thing though is that it...hangs, and swings in the wind and sometimes twirls. Whatever, they had the cutest baby birds and oh sweet jesus, baby birds. More than a dozen of them all together.
Today I went to check on them and see how much they grew, so I peered over the hanging plant expecting to see cute peeping faces. Except the only thing I saw were two rotting corpses, barely recognizable except the beaks and eyes. The eyes...
Face before seeing corpses: 8D
Face after seeing corpses: 8D ....
It's like childhood all over again, except this time it was cruel nature who killed them, not me.
I also saw mosquito larvae for the first time. They were in this bowl we left out, and it collected water from rain and the sprinklers. There was a dead bloated snail floating in the water so I poked it, and all of a sudden this giant black cloud of....mosquito larvae came rushing out of it and up to the surface. To look at me. and after initial screaming and swearing I told my mom and she promptly sprayed them with lysol and set them on fire.
Naturally, I sat there and stared at them while the remaining ones wiggled. They are so...
funky looking.
