August 2023 Discussion Thread

[kes.]

I'm almost wondering if the theme is 'Birds that can be found in/around Australia' 🤔

Of the ones we know for sure, or feel fairly confident about, there's

the Great Crested Grebe, which has a subspecies found in Australia

the Rainbow Bee-Eater, which is found in Australia

and the Sacred Kingfisher, which is my guess for this one, which is also found in Australia

With this idea in mind, here's some new bird guesses!

Freckled Duck

Magnificent Riflebird (Or Paradise Riflebird, which looks very similar)

Pied Honeyeater

The eye colors don't match up on all of them, so I'm still not 100% sure, but I feel pretty good about these guesses 👀

I think these guesses are all really good! I hope FleshCanvas comes in to confirm <3

And that last fox is grown now, the design is fun!

The last grown fox design is so pretty! Lots of beautiful designs this month

I love the cats from August! Has it been said what they are based on??

The cats were just a fun litter this time 😁 not based on anything in particular (but I did have a kind of night time theme in mind I suppose, not really though)

And Guinea reveals to come later when I'm not on my phone, but I WILL say that they have all previously been guessed correctly in the thread 👀

I love these cat designs, definitely my fav litter this month (although the foxes were a close second)

I am such a slacker fr

aight here we go

YOU GUYS MANAGED TO GUESS ALL OF THEM AGAIN! And YES they were all birds that can be found in Australia! I got an Australian bird watching guide a little bit ago so I was flipping to random pages and whatever bird it landed on I had to make!

White Throated NightJar


Magnificent Rifebird


Great Crested Grebe


Freckled Duck


Pied Honey Eater


Rainbow Bee Eater


Sacred King Fisher


((((shout out to Fluffmuffler for getting literally all of them right in their final guess like whaaa)

good job fluffmuffler!!! love these bird pigs <3

[Fluffmuffler]

Scrolling through the wikipedia list of Australian birds paid off 😂 I think the only one none of us managed to figure out was the White Throated NightJar pig, but it was real fun trying to sleuth out what they were! Always look forward to it when we get a set of critters based on real animals~

Dang. The pps cat got very uncommon. No wonder I haven't been able to find it.
