many trans people have terrific bird names (jay, wren, raven, robin, piper) but it feels like shorebirds are underexplored territory.
avocet: 7/10 great sound, very elegant. fails the starbucks test
killdeer: 9/10 imagine meeting a killdeer at a party. banger
woodcock: 3/10 probably not worth it but extremely funny bit potential for a trans dude
plover: 10/10 this one’s real actually. where are all the plovers
heron: 8/10 you’d get a lot of “hera” but that’s good too
dowitcher, godwit: 4/10 but very dark souls
sora: this one’s taken actually. sorry.
