RAHH TYSM FOR THE TAG

RAHH TYSM FOR THE TAG

basically, when I was growing up, my dad would BLAST AC/DC at full volume all day every day 😭 ESPECIALLY the song "Highway to Hell" (it was his favourite). I used to be really annoyed by it, but then I started listening to the songs with him, and suddenly, we would have loads of dance/sing off's whenever (I OBVIOUSLY won them all 😼)Even tho we don't play the music AS much as we used to, it still is a blast whenever we do!!Now, every time I hear an AC/DC song, it goes straight back to those evening battles ❤️

(Then he hacked into my Spotify playlist and started blasting the song full blast on my headphones 💔💔💔)

ty @evilbookworm and @tripleatechie for the tag! im starting a new post because the original one doesn’t let me reblog

tag your moots and ask them where they got the idea for their tumblr accounts name!

so my username is split into 2 parts, “blue” and “aracari”

blue because it’s my favourite colour, and the name i went by online until i decided that i don’t care about internet safety (to a degree) and preferred to be called my legal name.

aracari is a subspecies (and my favourite kind (hence why it’s in my username)) of toucan that can be found all across south america, and some species of aracari even into mexico. my personal favourite type of aracari is the chestnut-eared aracari, which are located across the amazon basin (as they tend to nest around wetter areas) and further into brazil. 

this is a photo of a chestnut-eared aracari that was taken in east ecuador (from wikipedia)! one of the easiest ways to differentiate male and female chestnut-eared aracaris (most other types of aracari are only differently coloured in their feathers, therefore this method doesn’t work outside of my aracari) is the colour of the skin around their eyes. in the photo above, you can see that the aracari has blue skin around the eye, instead of the black females have, so you can tell it’s male. the beak size and feather colouration is also slightly different in males and females, but the eyes are the easiest and most efficient way to identify them.

chestnut-eared aracaris often gather in flocks of 7-13, and mostly have a diet of fruit they can scavenge, although they do eat nectar and flowers too.

gonna stop here, but thank you for this golden opportunity to info-dump
