@Glacier, I don't know. I was watching TV and saw him chasing something crawling on the floor from the brightness of the TV

Then again it has only been two days, but I just worry a lot about stuff like this.

@Willow, it's been a bit rough. He startles really easily and seems to prefer small closed spaces, but we are making progress! It is just slow.

I was talking about the decline of their numbers appearing this season, "if it's not avian flu"

@Versa, that is not avian flu. That comes from moldy feeders.

If it's not avian flu, maybe the heatwaves are throwing off their migrations.

I DO know I've seen some sick hummingbirds, but I suspect these are cases of neighbours not cleaning their feeders. The tongue swells up and the hummingbird can't drink... :(

@Versa, yeah it makes sense. UT is known for their water birds though especially with the great salt lake.
Versailles

The struggle is if it spreads to the flying flocks. Then the bigger warnings go around. It's not that it primarily affects water birds, as much as it is the water birds aren't really interacting with the other species, if that makes sense

Colloquial Slang / Sayings? April 29, 2021 08:41 AM

I'm trying to write this new character of mine, and I'm really enjoying getting into her personality fully. I'm stuck on one thing, though: dialogue. I made the terrible decision to make her Virginian (please note: I've never been there/met someone from there/read a book set there) and I'm struggling to create realistic dialogue without overdoing the slang. Are there any Southerners who might be able to help me with commonly-used slang that is actually used regularly?

I'm Virginian! Is it set in northern virginia or in the rest of virginia? People talk very differently depending on if they're from the north or not.

She's from Richmond - which I'm guessing would be North Virginia?
