American robin … Lewes, Delaware … 3/16/22
you ever get like unreasonably proud of birds
like, they did it!
they evolved from the most successful group of animals in the history of the planet
they SURVIVED the impact that killed them all
and they're arguably just as successful as mammals, learning to survive on every single continent, which even MAMMALS haven't done
they're just so good!
