do you guys remember that one really remote walmart in kodiak, alaska that the internet collectively banished pitbull to? i say this is where the shadows alaskan immortals players are.

#or otherwise. who would be the most objectively funniest to be Tied to this place in some way #scoop scolopax i’m thinking but crits manhattan would also be funny. i think #also i knooow i’m almost 100% sure that pre-history i is said to take place in the 1980s #and according to google the kodiak walmart was built in 1999. its not logically sound but its Funny so this is true. for the bit #this is probably so very confusing and i sincerely apologize from the bottom of my heart #blaseball #alaskan immortals

Wait! I got a tiny bit of bad video of that woodcock with the phone! And of course I’m going to subject you to it.

BOTD: Eurasian Woodcock

^image credit: Ronald Slabke, Wikipedia

Eurasian woodcock (Scolopax rusticola)

Eurasian Woodcock are crepuscular, meaning they are most active at dawn and dusk. They forage by probing soft soil in thickets with their long bill, mainly eating (but not only) earthworms. It is a wading bird, but more adapted for life in woodlands and fields than for wading through water.
