Chapter 14: Adopting a small falcon (1/2)
Ning Fei looked at the young bird in his hand, which was very large and was chirping with a sharp open mouth, looking hungry.
“I’ve seen all the young birds in the village, what species is this?” Ning Fei thought darkly.
“Beak membrane is light brown, beak lead gray, wax membrane yellow-brown, toes are dark yellow, claws are black, look at it. It looks like a falcon.”
Ning Fei judged as he carefully observed the young bird.
If it really was a falcon, then Ning Fei had to admire the cuckoo’s guts.
The falcon was at the top of the bird food chain, with extremely strong flying abilities and one of the best eyesight animals.
Falcons have an important ecological significance in nature, and many birds of the order Falconiformes are also considered to have good characters such as courage and fortitude, so there are many countries whose national birds are of the order Falconiformes.
Such creatures are squeezed out by the young birds of the cuckoo bird.
In fact, this situation is quite normal.
At the previous stage there was a very hot video on the Douyin, about the cuckoo bird was found in the nest of peregrine falcons laying eggs, the falcon mother a claw pressed the neck of the cuckoo, and then little by little plucked the feathers of the cuckoo, that cuckoo can only wail.
It shows how courage the cuckoo is.
“Friends and audience, this should be a falcon, but the category is not yet clear.” Ning Fei put the young bird in front of the camera and said to everyone.
“I’m going to adopt it.” Ning Fei said as he saw the hunt and was very fond of the young bird.
Ning Fei likes two major categories of animals, one is mammals, such as dogs and cats, small tigers, small lions and the like, and another is birds.
“Friends and audience, perhaps because of the divine tree manifestation, I saved a falcon’s young bird.”
“The survival rate of newborn young birds is very low, so my next focus will be on saving this falcon.”
“In addition, the falcon, like the eagle, very aggressive, will peck people, so some friends without birding experience must not easily try to raise these raptors, really like it, we recommend that you raise pachyderms, parrots or whiteheads.”
Ning Fei rushed to everyone explained a few words, and then cannot wait to go to the Taoist temple.
The audience also exclaimed.
“Oh my God, is that a falcon? I heard that falcons are the kings of birds!”
“The anchor is good, he even saved a falcon.”
“It can’t be a posed shot, how can it be such a coincidence?”
“How could it be a photo shoot? You see the tree, can you climb it?”
“This falcon seems to be a white falcon, which is fierce in nature.”
A person with the ID [wildlife enthusiast] stated his opinion.
Other than that, more of the pop-ups were asking Ning Fei to drop the cuckoo young bird.
“Anchor, put the little falcon back and drop the cuckoo hatchling in the nest to death, I’ll give you a rocket!”
“Yes, you can kill the cuckoo baby bird or throw it on the ground.”
On the way, Ning Fei glanced at the pop-ups and found that everyone’s pop-ups were asking him to put the bird back and drop the cuckoo hatchling in the nest to death.
Ning Fei did not know how to explain.
The behaviour of cuckoos to lay eggs through their nests is indeed worth condemning, but the behaviour of throwing cuckoos to death is more excessive than the behaviour of cuckoos.
After all, the cuckoo’s behaviour is derived from genes, while the act of dropping the cuckoo bird to death belongs to the subjective emotion.
This goes against the law of respect for nature that Ning Fei has always believed in.
Moreover, the sacred tree was really too high for him to climb up, and even if he did, it was very dangerous.
“Friends and audience, I’m sorry, but I can’t do the act of dropping the cuckoo bird to death, what I can do is to save this little falcon and then release it.”
Ning Fei explained very calmly.
Because of his explanation, many viewers had threatened to unsubscribe, and his live stream room had instantly decreased in popularity by about 10,000.
In fact, a large portion of the viewers, who were pretending to leave, wanted to use this to threaten Ning Fei to drop the cuckoo hatchling.
It didn’t take long for them to come back.
