Seasonal body parts

Some ducks have penises, seasonally. And chickadees have seasonal brain growth. I guess all that is too much extra weight to carry around when it's unnecessary. All the info's in the genes, so why not make it more than retractable?

Detachable penis. So that King Missile song was about ducks!
Dr. Brennan, a post-doctoral researcher at Yale University and the University of Sheffield, visits the sanctuary every two weeks to measure the phalluses of six species of ducks.
You know if you take the "post-doctoral research at Yale University and the University of Sheffield" out of that sentence, you'd have a crazy person.

Hey, I like avian phalli as much as the next guy, but there have been two many duck penis stories lately.

Dr. Brennan was oblivious to bird phalluses until 1999.

You have to wonder if those ducks started looking forward to this every two weeks.
Did Dr. Brennan make some really close friends among the ducks?
I guess that's a cross-species study for some other time.

Why is this still here!?
Why aren't the admins living at their keyboards. I bet Matt is out riding some new bicycle and Jess is out... being a librarian. Cortex... god only knows what crazy song he's cookin' up.
I am displeased!
