Can’t see the shoebill without making an account (and I will not be making one on Epoch Times). I think this is the same video, or at least part of it…

The way she makes that sound by clapping her beak together is very dinosaur-ish.
I was not familiar with Epoch Times. A quick Google search was informative. I’m not going to go into details, because it would go far from Cute, but no, I’m not going to make an account there either.

I occasionally get youtube “ads” (they’re videos in themselves, at least a few minutes long) from them… 👀 I skip as quickly as I can.

I hadn’t looked into them, and boy howdy was I not expecting the Falun Gong.

I, too, have long avoided Epoch Times.

Just curious…what’s wrong with Epoch Times?

Depends on your perspective, I suppose, but the first line of their (somewhat lengthy) Wikipedia page is “The Epoch Times is a far-right international multi-language newspaper and media company affiliated with the Falun Gong new religious movement.”
Subsections include Pro-Trump conspiracy theories and disinformation and COVID-19 coverage and misinformation.
And I guess sometimes they also share cute stories about giant birds…who knew?

You had me at “far right”😳. Which totally explains why I’ve never heard of it!!😳
I did not sign up for anything they wanted me to. Good grief, I hope I didn’t give them a way to harass me with emails! That’s about as bad as finding out your brother voted for trump—twice!!🫣🤯

I’m probably in the same boat with brothers, but I’ve taken a “don’t ask, don’t tell” approach.
6rabbitsJune 22, 2023 / 5:38 pm
Yeah, that’ll have to be my plan also. *sigh*

Gah! 😳 Sorry everyone – I wouldn’t have submitted the link to Mike if I had to create an account. I know I didn’t because I never do. I had no idea about Epoch times. Not sure what happened.
Just incase you’d like a different video, here’s a really informative one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMXNRFxjHfs
Again – my apologies!

We know you were just here for Teh Cute! We love you (and shoebills)!
6rabbitsJune 22, 2023 / 10:10 pm
That’s okay! 😉
It is an amazingly interesting bird, who really does look like a dinosaur! This was a very informative video. Thanks for finding it and sharing it. I love the sound it makes!

Danni has melted my heart. He actually may have been feral but willing to trust humans. When a cat turns in his/her feral card, you know it and your whole life changes. Every time Scorpi curls up next to me in bed and starts his motor, it’s hard not to choke up.
Awww…the look on the poor doggie’s face when he hears he’s adopted!😂 Truly looks like he knew what his human was saying!
Okay, did I miss it? Was there no wombat yesterday??
No wombat yesterday, my bad!
👍🏼
I’m pretty sure he did know! It’s adorable.
What a handsome labradude.
Eyes match the fur. Very beautiful.
Bowing to a stork. Who’d have thunk it!
Danni has such a sweet face.

It says that there is a video, but there’s only a short one of them bowing together. I couldn’t get to the site on Safari, but I could on Chrome.
Whaaaaat??!!! Really? Epoch Times?
I had the same reaction!
