"Have you got everything you need?"
"Yes, Alfred...."
"Good."
Bruce walked towards the front door and was about to leave when he thought of something. He looked back into the house.
"Alfred?"
Alfred turned around in confusion.
"Yes, Master Bruce?"
"Would you.... Would you like to go with me this time?"
Alfred was shell-shocked.
"Are you.... Are you sure, Master Bruce?"
Bruce smiled and nodded.
"Yes, it's.... it's what my father would have wanted."
Alfred smiled.
"I'll go pack my things."

3 years later
Bruce sat at the dining table reading his newspaper when Alfred approached him."
"I noticed you haven't packed for the annual camping trip, Master Bruce. You haven't forgotten, have u?"
Alfred said as he set Bruce’s coffee on the table. Dick stops midway through his breakfast.
"What camping trip?"
Dick asked in confusion.
"No, Alfred, I haven't forgotten. I've just been too busy. And with Dick around, I think we should just skip it this year."
Bruce answered Alfred, ignoring Dick's confused glances.
"Why Master Bruce, you haven't missed a day, I don't think you should start now?"
Dick was getting increasingly annoyed, understandable as a 6-year-old.
"Missed what? What's going on?"
Bruce sighed.
"I'm busy. Besides, I can't exactly leave Dick alone in the manor. And before you suggest staying behind, you know I'm not letting you do that."
"Actually, I was going to suggest you bring the boy along this year."
Alfred nodded towards an excited Dick Grayson.
Before Bruce could protest, Dick jumped out of his seat in excitement.
"Yeah, camping trip!"
Dick exclaimed as he began jumping up and down.
Bruce frowned.
"I don't know...."
"It would be a good bonding experience for you and young master Richard."
Bruce looked thoughtful and sighed.
"Alright."
----
"Are you sure you don't want to come, Alfred?"
"No no, I have far too many chores to do. You boys enjoy yourselves."
Dick was excited. It was his first time going on a trip with Bruce since moving into the mansion. Bruce was so busy with work, they seldom had time to hang out and it often made Dick wonder why Bruce fostered him in the first place.
"So what exactly are we doing again?"
Dick asked, as they headed out.
Bruce sighed.
"When I was little, my dad would take me to hiking in the forest just north of the manor. We would camp the night and watch the sunrise in the morning."
Dick grinned.
"Sounds cool. I've never been camping before."
Bruce smiled fondly at the boy.
"When my parents died, I invited Alfred along with me. And it kind of became a tradition for me and Alfred."
Dick nodded. Bruce had told him a little about his parents' death, but he knew it was still a touchy subject.
"My dad promised to take me camping once."
Dick piped up.
Bruce looked at him with interest.
"But Haley's circus was always moving. We never even had a chance to visit the woods."
Bruce listened with interest. He patted the boy on his head. Alfred was right, this would be good for him and the boy.
Bruce suddenly stopped abruptly. Dick frowned in confusion.
"Why did we stop?"
But Bruce did not answer. Instead, he picked a pebble from the gravel floor. Dick looked on with interest.
"Choose a nice stone. You're gonna need it later."
Dick nodded and grabbed a pebble that caught his eye.
They continued on their hike and finally found a nice clearing.
"We're here. This is the campsite."
"Yes!"
Dick placed down his things. Bruce did the same, then took the pebble from his pocket and walked over to a corner where a pile of stones were gathered.
Dick followed him curiously.
Bruce took it a marker and handed it to him.
"Write your initials and place down the stone."
He placed down his own rock on a little pile of rocks labeled 'B.W.'
"Each time we come here, we place a rock until we make a little rock mountain. This is mine."
Then he pointed to a smaller stack beside his own labeled 'A.P.'
"This is Alfred's."
Then he gestured to the largest stack labeled 'T.W.'
"And this is my dad's."
Dick did as he was told and admired the other rock structures.
"Whoa. That's tall. Your dad must've come here often."
Bruce smiled.
"He used to come here all the time with his dad. N now I come here with you."
Dick registered the information, and a wide grin spread across his face.
"Thanks, Bruce."
"Anytime, son."
----
"Come on, Cass. You should come with us this year! It'll be fun!"
Duke persuaded.
Cass shook her head, stubbornly.
It was the annual camping trip. Bruce and the boys were all packed and ready to go. It was extra exciting, as it was Duke’s first trip with the family.
Steph placed an arm around Cass.
"Yeah, you're never going to convince her to come to your little 'Boy's trip'."
Dick chuckled.
"They're right, you know. We all tried."
Babs walked in.
"Plus, with the boys out of the house. Alfred lets us throw a little girls' night."
Duke looked at them, impressed.
"How'd you make Alfred agree to that?"
Steph shrugged.
"As long as we clean up after ourselves and keep the guest list to a minimum, Alfred sometimes even joins us for mani-pedis"
Dick grinned.
"Fair enough. Come on, let's make sure Tim isn't over-packing. Again."
Duke looked concerned.
"Again?"
Jason nodded.
"Yeah, last year he tried to bring 10 packs of instant coffee. Alfred caught him just in time."
Duke laughed at that. At the corner of his eye, he noticed Damian arguing with Bruce on bringing his pets along on the trip.
----
Duke felt a little silly carrying a pebble in his pocket, but the rest just gave him mysterious grins and said he'd find out later.
Finally, they reached a clearing. Duke began unpacking his things when he noticed the others gathered in a corner.
"What are you guys... doing?"
That's when he noticed the little rock structures with each of their initials. The boys grinned as they added a new rock to their structures.
Duke was still watching in amazement when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He turned around to see Bruce smiling at him and handing him a marker.
"It's your turn, son."
Duke smiled and took the marker. He wrote 'D.T.' on his pebble and set it beside Damian's.
"Hey, Bruce! Your pile is almost high as your dad's!"
Jason commented, ruining the perfect moment.

I HAVE BEEN FEEEEDDDD RRREAAAAAAAHAHAHSHHSHDIWOXKFNWOZLDNDJDKK
my contribution is that Crows have very similar brains to non-avian dinosaurs. And they're in their stone age.
Do you have any cool bird facts
female raptors (eagles, hawks, falcons, etc) are larger than male raptors in pretty much all species. this happens even in groups not closely related to each other (ex: hawks and falcons), so its beneficial enough in their niche that its evolved independently a few times, though its unsure exactly what that benefit is atm (bc unlike males being larger in a lot of mammals, female raptors dont make a habit of fighting each other or using size to attract mates as far as we know). ex: heres a male and female Cooper's Hawk
somewhat mentioned above but falcons are more closely related to parrots than they are to hawks
Gray Catbirds and American Robins have been witnessed raising young in the same nest at the same time. In one instance (reported by Mulvihill and Murray), they were recorded caring for the young of both species in the nest, and when the Catbird young fledged, the adult Catbirds continued to provide food for the not-yet-fledged Robins. heres a pic of the nest from the report
the worlds oldest known bird as of 2024 is a wild Laysan Albatross named Wisdom who's 72-73 years old (at minimum, we dont actually know her birth date, just that she was at least 5 years old when she was banded in the 50s) and still raising chicks. here's her with one of her chicks
also Albatrosses have wingspans of up to 3.5m/11.5ft and have been recorded flying 49,700 miles without touching land (they do land in the water to eat tho)
this is from personal experience but if you walk around in a north american grassland for long enough, you Will get jumpscared by a Mourning Dove bc they make their nests on the ground in the grass and like to hang out on the ground in the grass and they also like to wait until youre right overtop of them to freak out and fly away from you
Bald Eagles don't get their fully white heads and tails until theyre about 5 years old
A lot of birds have been observed incorporating cigarette butts into their nests, and a study in Mexico on House Finches found that this actually results in drastic decreases in parasites affecting young compared to nests without them
Cedar Waxwings (and Waxwings in general) just look so smooth. they look like someone airbrushed them. look at this shit
in Jacanas, females lay eggs in multiple males' nests, and then the males raise the young by themself. Also they carry their babies under their wings like this
Horned Guan. Theyre endangered and live in a small area of central america. both the males and females have the little horn fez, the males just have taller ones

Meow mrrow :(
