Or at the kind of level you’d be looking at if you were contemplating letting a bird in?
How the hell do you expect Big Bird to see that sign way down there???
Does… does it work?
Birds are kinda smart.
Only for walking birds.
Probably not well, there’s no circle around it 😁
Birds aren’t real.
Can you ask the story behind this sign? I bet there is a story behind it.
Untitled Goose Game got a sequel?
Every sign has a story. I’d love to know this one, and is it working?
That’s ornitocist! Bigot swine!
Swine‽ You porcinaphobe coward.
coward?! You boviniphobe maggot!
Maggot!? You scoleciphobe ass!
Ass?! You equidiphobe rat!
Rat?! You rodentiphobe shrew!
Shrew?! You moleophobe karp!
This will go over a lot of birds heads.
Many might find the concept to be beneath them as well.
Ok but have you actually had a bird walk into your place of work? Chaos seems like an understatement for what happens after that.
Ducks eat for free at Subway!
I had a bird in my basement last summer. Scared the hell out of everybody until we realized it wasn’t a bat. Then it was just a matter of herding the panicky little idiot back outside.
Had a bat at a T-shirt stand I used to work at once, ended up being a joint effort between myself, the only staff member willing to deal with the problem, and a collection of volunteers amongst the tourists that finally got the little bastard contained in a cardboard box which I was instructed to leave out back by the trees.
If you ever run into this in the future, you can often stand outside an open door with the lights on if it’s dark and make loud fast clicking noises (to give them a sense of outside through echolocation, plus a light outside the door to draw their attention since they have perfectly good eyesight) and they will just fly out on their own. They are smart, and don’t want to be inside buildings.
I get 0-5 bats a year in my house, not really sure how they get in, other than through some crack somewhere (cheap, poorly historically maintained, 140 yo house is bound to have some, and my neighbors house is basically made for bats to live in the siding so not surprising they try mine too) but I’ve figured out that’s typically a highly effective strategy to get them back out. Very easy, minimal stress for anyone involved. I don’t have anyone to help me, so it’s something one can do solo without wasting all the bat’s energy.
This was close to closing but still daylight. We just got him in the box with brooms. Honestly I was used to dealing with a crisis by that point in that town. I tell people I’ve only ever had one job and that’s whatever ends up needing done that day. I’ve worked on a demolition crew and I’ve been a cashier in a jewelry/luxury housewares store, not on the same day of course.
this is a high quality post
I bet those birds would be very upset if they had self-awareness.

I hope it’s not too interesting though.
