 Long Tailed Skua or Jaeger (Stercorarius longicaudus) -

The smallest of the skua family, this bird’s characteristic tail streamers only occur in the adults. Chicks are brown and spotted.   

Like most seabirds, they spend most of their time flying and fishing over the ocean.  Their food source is obtained largely by stealing other birds’ catch.  They harass and chase other species until they drop the food.  They feed on a wide variety of foods.  However during migration as there is less opportunity for stealing, and they are still able to successfully catch their own prey. 

In some areas like England they have almost been pushed out completely, however in its migratory paths like Norway and the Southern Atlantic Ocean its population is still relatively healthy.

“Heaven has no Taste”
~by Etherelle

“My dear boy-“
“You won’t have a choice.”
“Listen-“
“Heaven has no taste.”
Now-“
“And not one single sushi restaurant.”

That was the final straw for Aziraphale and Crowley, who at that point, combined their efforts to save the world. Good Omens is one of my favorite books for many reasons, but most likely for these incredibly contrasting and fabulous characters. If you haven’t read it, you should pick up a copy!

This print will be available at Fanime! I’ll be at Table 38.

YAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY
