day three-hundred-and-five - luzon bleeding-heart

a cool and dramatic dove, that looks normal except for what appears to be a severe chest wound. what deceptive little buggers. it's probably used to lure in the unaware and rape and/or eat them.

probably. i mean, i am one week into a science degree people. i know alllll about hypotheses.
