I am biased because I own (small) parrots who genuinely love crackers, and any reference to that cute behavior is positive for me. But I believe this would be a great metaphor even if I weren't biased in favor of parrots.
I sometimes come across a dead baby pigeon inside my work building, a large manufacturing structure many pigeons find their way into. Presumably the death is from falling out of the kind of nest in OP's image.
Parts of the feet are obscured by the grass and under the stomach, and the lens distortion affects perspective. I think platypus is the most plausible subject.
That she was four when she became Elon's stepsister is the worst part for me. If she had been an adult, even a young adult, when she and Errol met after he married her mother, it would have been sketchy (breaking the divide by two plus fourteen rule) but not in pedo territory. To have multiple children (Elon's half-siblings and also his step-nieces) with someone you raised as your own child since they were four... it's beyond.
I think the foothold thought was that pasteurization destroys more than just bacteria, and milk might be healthier and/or tastier without having been changed by that process. Of course taste is largely culturally acquired - example A being Germans and UHT milk - but lots of people fancy themselves taste-o-philes.
Then the mistrust of "them" kicked in, and if "they" said the risk of pathogenic bacteria far outweighed any marginal health benefit, the "truth" must be the opposite.
Estrus in bats - some bloody discharge while in the fertile part of their cycle. Only great apes have menstrual cycles (shedding unused uterine lining at the end of a cycle, NOT fertile when discharging blood).
Primaries can have so many candidates the median voter is never going to learn about all of them. A primary is a reasonable way to down-select to a candidate pool where they all have a chance to make their case to voters without being seen as noise.
Partisan primaries tend to produce more extreme candidates. The hope is switching to a combined primary will result in moving candidates of more general appeal on to the general election.
It's important for vote counts to to be independently checked. Having who voted publicly available means an investigative journalist can prove the county clerk's claim that dead people voted and so they can't certify the election is false. Or catch attempts at fraud. Both as a double-check on government in the case of officials who are lying or have acquired false beliefs, or as outside help if the issue isn't caught internally due to under-resoucing.
The usual interpretation is the director was trying to move the plot along with things happening during the sex scenes, but the penis was so attention-grabbing that the audience missed the plot points, which made them struggle to follow the rest of the movie (be confused).
It’s a linear relationship for men, and u-shaped for women (middle-income women have fewer kids than poor women, but high-income women have more kids than middle-income women).

Clearly it's a multifaceted issue, but all other things being equal, more money does make people more likely to have kids.
Their utility in both sexual and nonsexual applications makes coverage for just one use impractical. Soil testing machines and powdered metal formers use condoms to contain the loose material in the pressure vessel. They make hilarious balloons. They can keep gunpowder dry in combat.
I interned at a reseach lab that had powdered metal machines that used condoms. For a while, condoms were available as an open stores item. They pulled them due to way more being consumed than made sense for the amount of powdered metal research.
They will select a new primary leader, but they are organized more as a confederation than a centrally controlled group. Very little of their action relies on there being a leader at all. Past Israeli assassinations of their leaders haven't weakened the group, and I don't see any reason this time would be different.
