About Me

I am an odd person. I love books, break out into dance randomly, and gesture wildly when I speak with friends.

Mathematica Columbae

Courtesy of my good friend the Idiosyncrat I have found further proof of the awesomeness of PIGEONS! Below is a link to an article that explains how PIGEONS are one of the three species on earth, including humans, shown to understand abstract mathematics. GO PIGEONS GO!!!

PIGEON of December 2

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!! I hope everyone had a great holiday season. As I type this post I enjoy a glass of eggnog I made myself from scratch. In celebration of the season I present to you the second PIGEON of December, the CHRISTMAS IMPERIAL PIGEON! Named after its home Christmas Island this PIGEON lives in rain forests and eats mainly fruits as well as buds and leaves. This PIGEON also has a deep booming call unlike many other species. The CHRISTMAS IMPERIAL PIGEON is a very dark bird with tints of green, blue, and purple.
