Narcolepsy
No, narcolepsy has nothing to do with narcs surreptitiously stalking you and pouncing on you in the middle of a potentially extremely profitable business transaction between dusk and dawn. It is defined as “a condition characterized by an extreme tendency to fall asleep whenever in relaxing surroundings”. Well, apparently, my buddy Terra (short for Pterodactyl – the “a” in Terra signifies female) must have been in somewhat relaxing surroundings. I suspect it may have had something to do with a party-hardy-previous-night-outing. You can tell by the fact she’s still wearing her party outfit and fancy hat to accessorize same. While I was busy fiddling with my camera settings, all of a sudden my girl seemed sound asleep which gave me more time to make adjustments. This feeder is not really designed for her as shown by how the feeder tilts to the right under her weight. How do I know it’s a she? Since that stripe on her cheek (the one extending from the beak) is dark brownish black and not red, it indicates it’s a female. The male’s red hat would also extend to the top of the beak. As you can see the female’s forehead is on the gray side or at least not red. This female sighting is actually another first for me and the camera.
Since she looks somewhat otherworldly in this pose and with this facial expression, she reminds me somewhat of a vampire that could be encountered after dark. For this reason we are featuring After Dark – Tito y Taruntala as interpreted by Salma Hayek in From dusk till dawn.
