Simulation: Start with exotic animals

Chapter 6 Pseudo-fringed Sandpiper

"I don't know what animal is being simulated this time?"

Now that he has decided to simulate animals, Zhao Meng did not hesitate, and immediately started the simulation.

At this time, the phantom fluctuated a bit,
"Drawing Animals"

"The extraction is over, the simulation that is about to enter"

Before Zhao Meng could react, his consciousness came to another world,
At the same time, that pleasant voice appeared in his ears again:

"Week [-]: You hatch from an egg and you become a quasi-female fringed sandpiper!"

"Pseudo-female! Tassel Sandpiper!"

Hearing these two unfamiliar nouns,

Zhao Meng, who just came out of the bird's egg, chirped twice, showing great doubts.

He had never heard of such an animal,

"Fringed snipe, could it be said that it is the snipe in the fight between the snipe and the clam!"

"So, it should be a water bird this time!"

Zhao Meng shook his little head, but unfortunately he couldn't open his eyes at this time, and could only wait for his body to grow.

"In the second week, after being nursed by the female bird, you grew up healthy and opened your eyes!"

Zhao Meng, who just opened his eyes, looked at the world,

As birds, in general, daytime vision is better than that of humans.

From this vantage point, he sees the abundance of vegetation around him,
And the bird's nest under him is hidden in the bushes,

These reed-like plants sway gently with a breeze,

Through the gaps in the plants, some golden things can be vaguely seen,
"desert!"

Zhao Meng was a little surprised,

"Is this an oasis in the desert!"

Zhao Meng raised his head, wanting to continue thinking,

But under the warm sunshine, he fell asleep unknowingly,
I do not know how long it has been,

A chattering sound woke him up,

The female returns to feed, causing the other chicks in the nest to call,
Driven by instinct,
Zhao Meng also raised his head and chirped back, asking for food from the female bird.

While raising his head, he also saw the appearance of the female bird clearly
It was a taupe and not very pretty bird,

This bird is holding a worm in its mouth and stuffing it into the mouth of the chick in the nest.

If he simulates for the first time,
Faced with this situation, he might feel a little ashamed, even reserved,
After all, changing from a human to a bird, experiencing the growth process of a bird is still somewhat difficult to adapt to.
But after experiencing the last mental shock simulation,

Zhao Meng's acceptance level has improved a lot,
Compared to being a baby bird, no matter how bad it is, it can be compared to a hermaphrodite sea hare that needs to party to breed offspring,
No matter how you look at it, the tassel sandpiper is much more normal than the nudibranch.

"In the third week, after being nursed by the female bird, you grow up healthy and your feathers gradually plump, but at the same time you find that you seem to be different from other chicks!"

Hear the system prompt,
Only then did Zhao Meng realize that he had grown to the third week,
And as the system prompts,

He also found a strange place,

Generally speaking, a nest of birds should be about the same,

But compared with his other siblings in the same litter, his wings are darker in color,
Regarding this difference, Zhao Meng thought to himself,

"Could it be a gender difference, and I don't know what gender I am this time?"

"By the way! The system has reminded me that I am a female fringed sandpiper.

Literally, I should be a male,
What does the word "can imitate female" mean? "

YangMeng originally thought that his simulation this time would not be worse than the blue-spotted sea hare,
But now he had a vague premonition in his heart.

"In the fourth week, you have full wings, and the female bird taught you to fly and hunt, and you were driven away by the female bird!"

At this time, Zhao Meng was catching bugs in the oasis,

He was not surprised to be chased away by the female bird,
When he was a commentator in Wa Palace in his previous life, he enjoyed observing the animals in the mountains and forests in the off-season when he had nothing to do except playing games.
Among them, birds are the most observed.

The chicks in the nest are generally expelled after they reach sexual maturity,
Even if he is not expelled by the female bird, Zhao Meng will take the initiative to leave the nest.He still wants to complete this simulation mission,
"According to the experience of the first simulation, what conditions need to be fulfilled to be considered a successful simulation?"

YangMeng recalled the situation of the sea hare he simulated last time, and speculated on the conditions for the success of the simulation.

"Successful breeding? Or live to the end, or both breed and live..."

Just when Zhao Meng was thinking about something,
He seemed to see something out of the corner of his eye, and instinctively drove it into the grass on the side

"In the fifth week, you were chased by predators, and you hid in the grass beside you. Your taupe feathers became a protective color, and you escaped a disaster!"

"In the sixth week, the breeding season is here, and you noticed that some fringed sandpipers gathered on the small island in the oasis,

Driven by instinct, you flew to the island..."

After this period of life,
Zhao Meng has been able to identify the male and female tassel sandpiper, as for the meaning of the pseudo-female tassel sandpiper,
When Zhao Mengfei came to this gathering place, he also understood the meaning of it,
Like chickens and peacocks,
Among birds, males are generally more beautiful than females,
Like roosters and peacocks with their tails open, they all have beautiful appearances, while females are very ordinary.

Tassel Sandpiper, as a kind of bird, also follows this rule,
During the breeding season, the male tassel sandpiper will grow exaggerated fringed red feathers on the neck, while the female is just ordinary taupe.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, the male and female of the Tassel Sandpiper can be identified only by their appearance.

However, in the fringed sandpiper, this method of determination is somewhat ineffective.

In the fringed sandpiper, there is a kind of bird that disguises itself as a female, which is the pseudo female fringed sandpiper.

As for why the male bird pretends to be a female bird,
At first, Zhao Meng thought that the male bird was going to cheat other male birds to eat and drink by relying on the appearance of the female bird.

But he still underestimated the lower limit of the female fringed sandpiper.

At this time, Zhao Meng had already landed on this small island in the lake,
The male fringed sandpipers on the island are running and fighting for the best breeding territory.

Zhao Meng didn't join in, but was observing something,
After a rough look, Zhao Meng found that there are three kinds of tassel sandpipers here,

handsome male,
They each occupy an area, as long as other males approach,
Immediately attack by kicking, grabbing, pecking, etc. to drive away other males,

And those fringed sandpipers who can't occupy the territory,
Then it wanders around the territory of other tassel sandpipers, waiting for an opportunity.

As for what is the chance?
When a pseudo-female fringed sandpiper like Zhao Meng landed on the island,
These wandering fringed sandpipers immediately came up,

But before Zhao Meng reacted
The owner of this territory drove these fringed sandpipers away,
Then the owner of the territory jumped up and down in front of Zhao Meng, looking very hungry.

It's a pity that Zhao Meng is a male, and he can't satisfy the demands of this male bird, so he can only continue towards the island.
