On July 29, 2019, a new species of aviary was found by a self proclaimed bird who goes by the name of Try "A bird" Stan. This humanoid/aviary communicated to humans in several different languages, but gave us very little information about what he is, how he exists, and if there is many more of his species. He only replies with a mere taunt of his existence by repeating this one phrase, "What kind of bird am I? A Bird. At first, this was all the world thought this magnificent new species could say, until biologists and conspiracy theorists alike began to pressure the bird to speak. After many days of hard work, the aviary finally spoke again, giving one final clue of his existence. He said, "...to connect photosynthesis to the bisector." The researches and theorists were puzzled by his response, and continued to pressure A Bird to speak. The next day, A Bird disappeared, gone with only a piece of his lunch left at the lab. Research about what this A Bird is, continues as the world moves onto the next age.

Update: New Research has found that the Aviary is connected to Quantum Physics and Super Position. Specialists are being brought in to solve the new equation of A Bird's existence. This equation is ((Photosynthesis+Bisector) x Quantum Physics/Superposition= A Bird)

a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush 

This expression means that it is better to have an advantage or opportunity that is certain than having one that is worth more but is not so certain.

"A bird in the hand," is yours, and it's not going anywhere unless you let it go. But if you leave it and go for "two in the bush," there is no guarantee you'll catch them, you might end up with nothing in the end.

In essence, don't be greedy and stick with what good things you already have, instead of going after something you'll probably never get.
Bob: "I think I'm gonna quit my job..another firm is going to offer me a better job.."

Joe: "Are you sure? You probably shouldn't quit unless you know you're gonna get in for sure. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."

(Weeks later)

Joe: "So how was the interview?"

Bob: "Idk not so good...i don't think the boss is gonna let me come back either..."

Joe: "You're an idiot.."
