lads i just discovered that birds are like. really fast. guys. pigeons can fly up to 90 miles an hour. the peregrine falcon can get to 252mph during dives. i’ve been trying to conclude this post for ten minutes but i just. can’t. that’s it birds are fast and we don’t stand a chance

listen to me. we’ve been fools. all of us. for how long have we been tempting fate? for how long has our ignorance led members of our species to laugh as they chase pigeons on the street? “haha,” we say, “dumb bird. doesn’t even remember it can fly away.” do you know why it doesn’t fly? it’s letting us fucking live.

252 mph is pretty generous on a peregrine dive……. i know someone who clocked their peregrine at 280.

i thought u were gonna comfort me by saying 252mph was generous bc it was rare not bc it was too slow i physically don’t know what to do with myself
