Please keep in mind that every cabinet member that resigns (Betsy DeVos, Elaine Chao, etc.) is effectively just declining to take on the responsibility of invoking the 25th amendment. They looked at the on-fire garbage can and instead of getting a fire extinguisher they said “I’m just gonna walk away”

This week: Form follows function! You can tell a lot about a bird by its wings.

Since there was a request for examples of each type (which I sort of meant to include but forgot, oops) :

Active soaring wings: Think seabirds. Gulls, albatrosses.

Passive soaring wings: Large birds of prey. Eagles, vultures.

Elliptical wings: Generally small birds. Sparrows, crows, pheasants, but also forest-dwelling raptors.

High-speed wings: Mix of prey and predator birds. Ranges from falcons to swifts to ducks.

Hovering wings: Hummingbirds. 🙂
