The opposite of a stork.

All Hail Abortion Eagle! Truly a sign of freedom.
Am I the only one that sees a crow?
Here's the thing. You said a "jackdaw is a crow."
Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that.
As someone who is a scientist who studies crows, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls jackdaws crows. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing.
If you're saying "crow family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens.
So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people "call the black ones crows?" Let's get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too.
Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that's not what you said. You said a jackdaw is a crow, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you'd call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don't.
It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?
I wonder what Unidan is upto these days?
A crowbar? That’s a coat hanger.
raven?
It's clearly a dingo.

I'm pretty sure we call that a "Swallow".
no, that's ur mother
"The raven is bringing you an abortion!" - countries with women's rights and universal healthcare
Here in the US, we have to pay for that raven to make a visit, smh.
Probably still get charged..
In college I had a coat hanger in a picture frame with a little sign that said "in case of emergency break glass"
The official bird of the state of Texas.
Abork
Nah, that's a mute chicken.
Careful. If you get more than one crow performing an abortion, it's murder.
For those who took too long like myself since I thought it was some kind of linguistics wordplay...
It's just implying that the eagle is doing abortions with a coathanger. So rather than giving babies, it takes fetuses.
I've got a cousin who was born after a failed hangar abortion. Was born with all sorts of fucked up brain issues.
Yeah, honestly I didn't identify the coat hanger initially I thought it was some kind of branch.

Life… uh… finds a way,
whatever this is in every driveway and a chicken in every pot.

Do you mean: https://lemmy.world/c/crows@lemmy.ml
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !crows@lemmy.ml
Lol
Punchline in the title? Check.
I didn't know what else to title it to be honest.
Just call it "stork rule" or whatever if you feel uncreative
That sounds worse to me... Especially since this isn't 196.
196 adopted it from 195 so it's not like it's from 196 in the first place
I feel like the title/caption is the setup and the picture is the punchline.
