Seasonal Prompts - Fall
I: Sparring Season
As the fall months approach, many avians begin their seasonal breeding- and along with that comes a whole lot of attitude! Males and females alike squabble over higher positions in their flock in preparation for the years breeding season. Draw or write about your avian as they spar with others within their flock for dominance; be it for females, nesting space, or nesting material!
|
II: Bountiful Harvest
Tis the season for many fruiting plants to begin dropping their seeds; which brings all sorts of foragers, scavengers... and predators to the jungles of the Lost Isle. Draw or write about your avian as they partake in this once a year feast- either as a forager, a scavenger... or a predator hunting the prey drawn in by the plentiful food!

___
Regular Prompts
I: Forage
Your avian requires a substantial amount of food per day, even more so while they're growing! Draw or write about your avian searching their rainforest home for fruits, fungi, nuts, seeds, leaves, roots, or flowers!
May only be completed by herbivorous or omnivorous avians! (ara, cacat, pion, melo, rampha, prasin) |
II: Hunt
Carnivorous avians are almost always on the hunt. Some may choose to go for smaller, easier prey such as fish or reptiles to avoid frequently failed hunts... but others go for larger, more substantial prey; sometimes even other avians. Draw or write about your avian hunting their preferred prey!
May only be completed by carnivorous or omnivorous avians (rampha, prasin, corvo, bucero) |
III: Migrate
Many flocks of avians, in their search for food or nesting grounds, travel across the isle to get to new spaces. These journeys can be long and difficult for growing youngsters, but it's these travels that make them stronger! Draw or write about your avian as they migrate from one place to another, either through the forests, over the rivers, up the mountains, or down to the shore!
|
IV: Spar
Avians occasionally get into fights among their groups... or with others who are encroaching on their territory. Squabbling over food, space, dominance, and mates is a part of growing up for this species. Draw or write about your avian getting into a scuffle with another of it's kind!
|
V: Bond
By nature, avians are social creatures, often seen in flocks of all sizes. They're intelligent and form relationships with other avians, and show their fondness by being close to one another, preening, sharing food, and foraging together! Draw or write about your avian as they bond with another individual of their species!
|
VI: Groom
Avians are tidy creatures that regularly clean, preen, and groom themselves (and their personal spaces) to be as attractive as possible to others. Draw or write about your avian as they preen their feathers, decorate their bodies, or their personal nests to be as beautiful as possible!
