I'd you're wondering what a hermit bird looks like: http://www.peruaves.org/trochilidae/black-throated-hermit-phaethornis-atrimentalis/ http://www.peruaves.org

I'd you're wondering what a hermit bird looks like: http://www.peruaves.org/trochilidae/black-throated-hermit-phaethornis-atrimentalis/ http://www.peruaves.org/trochilidae/black-throated-hermit-ph... So that does make sense. I'm wondering if the drawings on the desert plains could have been some kind of manifestation ritual, i.e. "let's get some beautiful jungle up in here, everybody get drawing." When there aren't any super grounded or practical ideas as to how to do a thing, it seems like this is one of those ideas to which human psychology likes to attach.

My terrible interpretation is that this is a sense of identity or proto-national borders. “This is who we are, our people are spread far, extended to as far away as where this bird lives.” Beyond that it’s all ritual. If only they had a kangaroo too, the ancient aliens crowd would go nuts. Alas, I guess I’ll have to watch tv, another identity ritual.

  ... The crop inside the limits of the hummingbird figure is for being offered to the hummingbird good or the hummingbird tribe. This other crop inside pelican bird is for being filled by the coastal villages. This maize inside the sun is for taxes for the solar god and those tomatoes inside the polygon saying netflix are for our targarian lords. Maybe is just a taxing system. Fill this triangle completely with avocados or I will you next year.
