So there are raptor livestreams. Most of them follow two birds who live in a box or in a nest. Sometimes they have babies. The babies are cute. Which is neat and cool, and half of what I watch for.

The other half is the hilarious dramatics in the chat or in the comments of LadyHawk's compilation videos where the boomer viewers gush about beautiful wife bird and handsome husband bird - who look basically exactly alike - and how much they love each other and project all over them. They're basically writing bird anthro RPF without realizing it and it is so very funny

Hahah. This stuff is all over my facebook algorithm and it is pretty funny. I recently saw someone trying to push back that you can't put human emotions on these birds. I bet the response to that was perfectly normal haha.

I mean if David Attenborough('s writers) can do it, so can average viewers. But then, that's why I don't watch nature shows anymore, not a single dry boring fact-filled documentary to be seen far and wide.

I had no idea this was a thing.

But I guess I shouldn’t be shocked. I read about bear cam drama on r/HobbyDrama and that’s got its own set of weird fans with very anthropomorphizing attitudes.

Last year my mother and I were both watching a local falcon cam and by the end of the season, I think we got pretty good at telling the difference between the male and the female, but it was very subtle.

Greetings, fellow raptor fan!

What I like about anthropomorphising them - which I don't, i's about as relevant as doing the same with cats - is that the female is much bigger and stronger than the male. (Where do they think the word "tiercel" comes from?) So that's life goals; those females have got the right idea.
