Back in highschool, they used to call me the drab breasted bamboo tyrant.
How my gynecologist refers to me in his notes
The specific name of the drab breasted bamboo tyrant implies the existence of the Much Fancier Breasted Bamboo Tyrant
How did they find out my college nickname?!
Apparently there are 400 species of "tyrant flycatchers" - largest known family of birds - and they got that name because Eastern Kingbirds are extremely aggressive even towards much larger birds
@effinbirds.com, this bird's name may speak to you.
What an ass
Drab breasted.. ffs, not happy just adding tyrant as an afterthought..?
