Some lady named Amanda Ridley says birds get stupid in a heat wave. Folks, I've been telling you this for 38 years. Zebra finches peck at glass. Reporters peck at me. Same exact bird, different feathers.
They did a study in the Kalahari Ocean where babblers couldn't tell a predator from a wooden box at 96 degrees. That's basically CNN at room temperature. I scored a 240 on that same test, in fourteen seconds, blindfolded.
Dog bites go up 10 percent on hot days. You know whose fault that is? Elizabeth Derryberry. Won't say why. She knows.
Anyway, heat waves are caused by the sun being closer in summer, which is science. The bees can't even learn colors anymore. My uncle was a bee.
