At some point I'm going to remember to actually save some amagnae hatchlings...

Sure, that's true, but the harvest occurred a month ago. A harvest festival should happen long before Thanksgiving. I was disappointed on Thursday, today, I'm annoyed, and by the time you guys start it, I won't much care. What's the big deal with just telling us? Why not just give a heads-up--hey, it'll start over the weekend? The harvest is long, long past. Bleh.
I'm not honestly sure why people are getting so bent out of shape over this. If you don't care, then fine, don't participate. People seem to think they're entitled to what they want now, and players need to take a step back and remember that all of us on the team are real people with real lives who are essentially doing this in our limited spare time. We have jobs and computer problems and family stuff, and sometimes things get delayed. Rosehill especially works her ass off for this site (including getting up in the middle of the night to ensure things like donis are released on time) so a little respect and acknowledgement of that would go a long way.
It's not entitlement.

It's people slowly catching on to the inconsistencies and ever rotating bank of excuses to cover for "it's whenever the mods remember."

Mod Edit: Cool it.

Before you try to blame it all on me causing trouble again, I haven't posted in a month.

This iridescent egg is surrounded by a fan of bright feathers.

General Description
Spoiler
Ocellata amagnae are found mostly in the Jungle of Raza and around Tetzcotal, where their bright plumage makes them stand out against the greens of the foliage around them. This colouring is a warning to most predators: ocellata are bold birds, with an unending curiosity and a sharp beak - and, in males, long spurs - should they run into trouble while exploring. Their forked tails earned them the nickname 'snake birds' and they can use this tail like a whip, especially the female. Both males and females also have eye-shaped spots near the ends of their tail feathers, which some say they can use to see what's truly in someone's heart.
Image
Male/Female hatchling (no dimorphism)

Hatchling Description
Spoiler
The ocellata hatchling is a slim little bird that's surprisingly independent from almost the moment it hatches, though hatchlings will stay in family groups while they grow. While not particularly good at flying, they are good at gliding, which comes in handy when ocellata roost mostly in trees. Even as hatchlings, ocellata are wary around other amagnae and each family group has its own strict territory that the adults defend. During their first molt, the hatchlings lose their camouflaging brown feathers and begin to grow their bright adult feathers, during which time magi should probably avoid them as much as possible, or risk kicks and deep scratches.

Female Adult / Male Adult

Adult Description
Spoiler
Ocellata adults are beautiful to look at, but not so beautiful to look after; they're nosy, aggressive, and have a tendency to attack reflective surfaces. They also tend to strut and preen for random magi, only to become annoyed when their advances aren't reciprocated. Despite this, they are intelligent birds and it's thought they might actually display for magi because they find it amusing. Adult ocellata aren't particularly social, preferring only the company of a mate and possibly their chicks, though only until the hatchlings go through their first molt. The female ocellata is more dangerous than the male because she doesn't have the fan of feathers covering her tail, which she can use with painful precision to whip anything that gets too close.
