Is there a Great “Martesian” Basin, from which water “escapes” in certain places, forming petite “oases” on the planet’s otherwise “desolate” surface?
This gushing – or seeping – water originally arrived from the sky as rain… many thousands of human generations ago, when the proverbially dry Mars was a very wet place.
As you can see, the new photographic evidence is compelling.

She is the same individual as in #20, this post’s “moment” happened a fraction of a second earlier.

Our heroine is more spectacular than the “average” bird, but in this photo she is engaging in a necessary activity which all birds undertake.

Very few seconds elapsed between their two moments.

“Feeding time” is not the only time that a red-tail’s flexibility and dexterity are spectacularly evident.

Forest red-tailed black cockatoos are very limber.
Their bodies’ flexibility is often spectacularly evident, whilst the power and dexterity of their “footwork” makes me highly sceptical about some claims made about the “unique” abilities of the human hand.

As you can see, he was clearly aware of our presence, but not troubled by it.
