Post the CUTEST things EVER! :)

I was passing through the woods today when I spied a Montezuma Quail.

These quail have no defense at all against predators so they try their best to hide. If a predator is around the quail try to slip away very slowly so as not to be noticed. So the quail I saw this morning was very carefully, quietly walking along, carefully placing each foot so as to make no noise and moving slowly, slowly as not to attract attention. It literally took five minutes for it to move three feet. The strategy was golden except for the fact that the bird was in the middle of a paved road. Three other quail quietly waited for it to finish crossing before all four flew off together.

Are you purposely linking these?
If it's a gif you gotta use IMG tags.

If it's a large ass gif he has more common sens than most idiots on this forum.

It's a gifv and, in a rare turn of events, I agree with John Connor. Large files are best served as links.


It's a constant issue in the Hume thread. There'll be 40MB+ gifs posted. Sure, that's fine on my home connection, but it's something terrible on either my work or mobile connection.

Absolutely, this thread and the Hume thread are rife with them. Not only does linking the gifv vs gif reduce bandwidth by significant amounts (40mb gif vs 540K webm in this case) it makes the page load manageable.

Now if we can get the site to load webm and html5 like it does gif we're all set.
