Vampire Fucking Finches

So I watch a lot of nature documentaries and my kid loves them too and this has by far been the most baffling shit I've come across. WTF evolution?! I suggest you look them up for yourself because this really blew my mind. Apparently when seeds and other prey are scarce during the dry seasons, these vampiric fuckers start snacking on the blood of the Nazca and Blue Footed boobies (those are birds) primarily and the boobies just sit there and let them. Now I'm here for a good boobie sucking but this is not what I ever have in mind. Well I hope this takes you down the rabbit hole.

Until next time,
