#Little Corella

[todaysbird]

the little corella, also known as the bare-eyed cockatoo, is a relatively small cockatoo species found in australia and new guinea. they are a highly social bird, and often congregate in groups that can reach the thousands. these flocks can include multiple other cockatoo species. when playing or gathering to feed, these cockatoos are noisy and communicate through high-pitched shrieks. the little corella can be distinguished from similar species by the distinct bare blue skin around their eyes. they feed primarily on grains and seeds, and are sometimes considered agricultural pests, as they feed on cereal crops. they are somewhat common in aviculture; while they are legal to be kept as pets, and are actually still trapped in the wild legally due to their status as pests, they can be demanding and hard to care for. without a companion bird, they often do poorly in captivity.

Aldinga's Temperance Precinct

Dear Reader: There is a sizeable group of Short-billed Corellas in the eucalyptus trees flanking the street. They exhibit a range of behaviours ranging from preening each other to nibbling branches and feeding on gum nuts. Some of the cars parked under the trees or nearby have also suffered some paintwork indignities due to the sheer number of birds. Little or Short-beaked Corella Corellas in…

[anghraine]

I was thinking about Rickrolling, which I don't think I've actually done in the pure, classic form apart from reblogging someone else's a few times. That said, I'm pretty sure one of my favorite fandom interactions was when someone asked something about how I see Miquel (Micheletto) de Corella's dynamic with Cesare Borgia, and I just replied, "this is my take on it."

#i think it was about il creatore che ha distrutto and not the borgias but it doesn't make a huge difference tbh #(in this respect) #anghraine babbles #deep blogging #my little piano: music is magic #political shenanigans and codependent siblings #magnificent bastards of the vatican #cesare il creatore che ha distrutto #micheletto corella #cesare borgia

Slytherin Boys W/ Ballerina!Reader as Pas De Deux 🩰

SO I'm back at it again with more ballet stuff! Last time I did headcanons for Mattheo if he was dating a ballerina. This time however, we're going down the route of what Pas De Deux (pair dance) the boys would do with a ballerina reader if they danced together.

Lorenzo Berkshire

White Swan Pas De Deux (Swan Lake)

Choosing one for our boy Enzo was EXTREMELY difficult because I secretly headcanon him being a danseur already so picking just one dance for him was hard. I went with the famous white swan pas de deux from Swan Lake where he is the role of Prince Siegfried and the reader is Odette. It's a beautiful, and heartbreaking pas de deux where Odette and Siegfried get to know each other better with it ending in Odette putting her trust in Siegfried to make a vow of true love in order to free her from Von Rothbart's spell. (In this video the pas de deux is performed by famous dancers Svetlana Zakharova and Roberto Bolle. The part at 5:09 where he embraces her makes we weeeeeeep)

Theodore Nott

Giselle act 2 Pas De Deux (Giselle)

For Theo's I decided to play a little into the headcanon of him being a casanova and went the route of Giselle. Theo's character would be Albrect (sometimes known as Count Albrect, Duke Albrect, or in other versions Prince Albrect) the reader's character is Giselle, who died of a broken heart when she found out Albrect was bethrothed to another woman. Another beautiful and heartbreaking piece as Giselle is trying to protect Albrect until dawn from the wrath of the willis (spirits of young maidens that died before marriage) who wish to make him dance to his death. The queen of the willis Myrtha uses Giselle to lure Albrect away from the safety of her tombstone by making her dance a seductive pas de deux that lures him in like a siren singing a song. (In this video the pas de deux is danced once again by famous dancers Svetlana and Roberto. They're one of my favorite dance partner pairings!)

Draco Malfoy

Sugarplum and Cavalier (The Nutcracker)

My first fictional love, I had to give Draco one of my favorite pas de deux which is from The Nutcracker between the sugarplum fairy and her cavalier. I don't think I need to explain which roles these two are, it's a beautiful piece with beautiful music performed near the end of the story. (I've inserted my FAVORITE rendition of this dance performed by famous dancers Anna Tsygankova and Matthew Golding)

Mattheo Riddle

Black Swan Pas De Deux (Swan Lake)

When it comes to my headcanons I said that Mattheo liked Don Quixote and Giselle, but this man also in my headcanon has an absolute WEAKNESS for Swan Lake. So when he gets to be the part of Siegfried and the reader is playing Odile? He's absolutely giddy because this pas de deux is alluring and seductive as Odile is playing poor Siegfried like a fiddle making him believe she's actually Odette. (For this video the pas de deux is danced by one of my favorite dancers Gillian Murphy with Angel Corella)

Tom Riddle

Opening Scene (Swan Lake)

I could've easily went full delulu and gave Tommy a pas de deux, but come onnnnn. I'm giving this man the role he was MADE FOR. The opening scene from ABT's Swan Lake. He's the role of the sorcerer Von Rothbart while the reader is Odette. So enchanted by the beautiful princess he runs into in the woods he tries to charm her only to find her displeased and so what does he do? Takes her for his own and changes her into the form of a swan to keep her close to him. (For this video it's from ABT's Swan Lake they recorded back in the early 2000's with Gillian Murphy as Odette, Marcelo Gomes as the handsome human Von Rothbart and Isaac Stappas as Von Rothbart's other form)

Blaise Zabini

Nikiya and Solor act 1 (La Bayadere)

I'm not too familiar with Blaise, so forgive me everyone but I didn't want to leave him out. I chose my favorite pas de deux from La Bayadere where Blaise would be Solor a warrior and the reader is Nikiya a beautiful temple dancer. The two are secret lovers that are reunited and dance together before swearing their love under the sacred flame. (For this one I went with yet again Svetlana and Roberto because they ATEEEEEE this pas de deux up with their chemistry alone!)

spinning Laurence as Cesare Borgia and Ludwig as Micheletto Corella in my head like hot dogs in a microwave

do you mean the series? i've thought about watching it for ages, maybe this is the excuse i need, especially because the costumes look fucking sumptuous (and are largely historically accurate, apparently). i think the ornate cardinal outfit would look great on Laurence - even the dumb little biretta cap that looks nonetheless like it could be a precursor to the Choir cap.  

#ask #bloodborne #laurence the first vicar #playing dress-up with him again #just realised i missed a great opportunity here to give him the pope's red louboutins #still going through the ask box #sorry for letting your asks languish - i've been travelling ):

Visit Friends in Australia Quebec Two corellas crowd a lorikeet family at breakfast. A confused kookaburra flies over to watch the action until it gets a little too close. Although the kookaburra makes some token attempts to chase the lorikeets away, I think he really enjoys their antics. He's the teacher at their Sunday school picnic almost every day. And the Loris seem to enjoy teasing him. Note that they are plucking his feathers at 2:30

Gorge Wildlife Park

Dear Reader: Capturing images in the wild is one of the most exhilarating challenges a photographer faces. Each image evokes poignant memories of the location and circumstances under which it was shot. However, there is also a place for pictures taken in zoos and wildlife parks. Wedge-tailed Eagle At the Gorge Wildlife Park, one can get close enough to discern the fine details of animal…

Is there a guide for the size or glow of Spinal tap's eyes? (eye lights? Pupil lights..?)

Here you go:

While Skeletor has empty eye sockets with magic orbs that function as 'pupils', Spinal Tap has actual eyes. The black circles around his eyes are markings.

Thornimps have fairly decent vision for having such small eyes, night vision included, but they also have an organ in their torsos similar to a melon that's used for vocalization and passive bio-sonar, which aids them in orienting themselves.

The way his eyes look are a mix between chameleons and bird eyes, the latter inspiration being the little corella/bare faced cockatoo.

I don't have a drawing yet for the anatomy of their eyes, but thornimp eyes essentially have a protruding eyeball (which isnt that easy to notice bc their eye sockets are recessed) with a single-colored iris and a pupil which is close in color. Only a small portion of their eyes are exposed normally, and around similar to a chameleon's, but dependently to each other.

There are two sets of eyelids:

An outer eyelid; being a ring of muscle that contracts itself rather than closes as a traditional set of two eyelids does. It's used to change the 'shape' of the eye in a 360° fashion. This is to change the visual appearance of their eye shape, however, and not the state of their actual eyeball/iris/pupils. Their pupils however, are more like a traditional slit pupil.

The second eyelid is directly underneath, and is the one to actually protect the eye. It is clear nictitating membrane and function in the usual ways those work for a semi-aquatic creature like a thornimp.

Anyway, you're probably like "Skull, I just wanted to know how he's feeling based on his eye shape". Well, with that context:

Their eye expressions follow pretty basic principals to how earthlings interpret eyes for expression.

Round eyes are a neutral state, but big and large = happy. Think a happy cat but with their full eyes instead of pupils.

Horizontally contracted eyes (- shape) are usually droopy/sleepy/un-amused/etc

Vertically contracted eyes are associated with being threatened or angered.

So... yea. Thornimp eyes!

BENIDORM FEST 2024 - PARTICIPANTS

Yesterday (november 11) all 16 participants of Benidorm Fest 2024 were revealed - the songs will be revealed on december 14th. I wanted to make this post talking about all the possible representants of Spain in ESC 2024, as a little intro to them and how their songs might sound like. As always, everything will be below the cut :)

ALMÁCOR

Arturo Almarcha Corella, better known as Almácor (Villena, 26) is an urban artist that started his career in 2019. He has released an EP since then, and has collabed with artists like Henry Mendez or Chimbabala. This year he was nominated in the Best New Urban Artist in the Los 40 Music Awards. His most popular song is DE TO', and his last released song is Pop Tech.

ANGY FERNÁNDEZ

Angy Fernández (Palma, 33) is a LEGEND and our very own emo princess, she's an icon. Her leap to fame was being the runner up in the first edition of Spanish X Factor, in 2007, but she became a phenomenon when she starred in iconic teen drama Física o Química (2008-2011) as Paula Blasco. She also released various albums and songs, like the hit and iconic emo bop Sola en el silencio. After the show she has appeared in various TV programs like Tu Cara Me Suena, and has continued making music as well as acting in theatre, cinema and TV shows. Her last released song is Dualidad.

DELLACRUZ

Jorge de la Cruz Correa, better known as Dellacruz (Santa Cruz de Tenerife) is a Canarian urban pop singer that started his own singing career in 2019 after ample experience as a songwriter; he has written songs for artists such as Sergio Dalma, Xuso Jones, or Dvicio, among many others.

María Peláe (Málaga, 33) is an icon and a flamenco singer known for her witty and ironic lyrics, with a modern spin on traditional sounds. She started her career in 2016 after studying Anthropology and Social Work in university, and so her songs usually have a social message. In fact, in 2023 she was awarded the Rainbow Award by the Ministry of Equality for her work in the LGBTQ+ scene. A song I really recommend of hers regarding this is La Niña, a very fun song about wlws (also the music video is soooo). She has released two albums - the second of which won an Odeón to Best Flamenco Album, and has participated in various TV shows like Tu Cara Me Suena. Her most popular song is Por si te vas, and her latest single is Letra Menúa.

SOFIA COLL

Sofia Coll i Benito (Barcelona, 24) is a singer, actress, and dancer who rose to fame as a participant of The Voice Kids when she was 14, although she didn't release music until 2019, with songs that mixed Spanish and English. She was one of the protagonist of the TV show Bany Compartit (I watched the first episode while writing this, it's really fun and I really recommend it! Episodes are around 10 minutes long, and you can find all of them in RTVE Play and Youtube; they're in catalan, but there's Spanish subs available), and she was one of the dancers in Rosalía's mv for Fucking Money Man. Finally, she participated in the Catalan music contest Eufòria this year, ending up 4th. Her most popular song is Tú Mente y Yo Corazón, and her latest song is Génesis: Alive.
