Awful cable management.

source? seems like AI generated to me

I agree it seems like AI

But if it came from anywhere it would probably be the book he published last year.

Dr Echols invented new technology allowing researchers to see anatomical features such as blood vessels with the use of CT. The Second Edition has all new images of CT based wing and leg anatomy clearly depicting important anatomic features for several avian species.

Which seems like a pretty credible origin to me

Interesting, I thought their beaks were just some hard material, like our nails. Didn't know that there's bloodflow there.

Most of the veins visible on the beak are for the interior lining of the mouth. You are right in that it's similar to our nails

Fun fact: The inside of the upper beak is where taste buds are located for parrots. Scientists are still studying to find out if this is the case for all types of birds or just some species.

Looks like a juvenile pigeon. Cool image

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 4 points 4 months ago

Yeah I think it still needs to grow skin and feathers

Why? The flesh pigeon is your friend, open your room window and let it in, it might bring you a treat.

It's made of MEAT?
