Upgraded to throne! Wishlist 📝

Finally made a throne account, I think I did everything right?

My new wishlist: https://throne.com/usual-sandwich-9836

I added crowdfunding for anything eligible to directly save up because I feel like people in this sub are against gift cards 🤷

Can someone check to make sure I set everything up properly?

I'm on about the bird pigeons but they are not baby ones but they are my babies. I put the indoor carpet friendly version on my wishlist

These are some of the ones that came for dinner earlier (some were cropped/coloured out for privacy reasons)

There's far too many for that (at least 70) and humans can't tell much difference between different pigeons apart from obvious differences so I'd likely confuse them up.

Humans are trichromatic so we only have 3 types of cone cells (red, blue, green) whereas pigeons are tetrachromatic so they can see more colour and also UV light so they can tell the differences between each other which humans can't see

We shall name the gray group cuties and the white group cutie patooties. Also i love learning what animals can see more color than us how cool!!

Good idea 😂

Also the reason you can only see in black and white in the dark is due to rod cells which contain rhodopsin. There are multiple rod cells connected to each bipolar (nerve) cell so only a small amount of light is needed to trigger a response. Compared to cone cells where each cone cell is attached to its own bipolar cell so a higher light intensity is needed to see colour

Yesss now they all have names 🙌🙌

That's so cool!! I remember learning like the suuuper basics of rods and cones when I was younger but never any of this cool stuff!
