Birds can SEE ultraviolet lighting, not that they see in ultraviolet.

Meaning, if you shone a UV flash light in their eyes, they can see it.

They can also seenthings that reflect / absord UV light. Its how vision works for... everything?

Well, There would have to be enough UV light to hit the blanket, but not get flooded by the normal light. Hence why you have to turn to lights off to see the UV reflecting off the blanket. No idea if birds are sensitive enough to be able to differentiate and block out the normal lighting.

Do you feel the need to argue with everyone, or just the things you admit you have no idea about?

This draws far too many assumptions for me to be taken as a fact.

This is a friendly reminder to read our rules.

Officer Michaels: You know, this job though isn't how shows like CSI make it out to be, when I first joined the force, I was under the impression that everything was covered in a fine layer of semen. And that the police had at their disposal a semen database with every bad guy's semen on it. Not true!

Officer Slater: Yup

Officer Michaels: If only there was semen on everything, it would make our jobs easier...

Officer Slater: Hell, yeah!

Officer Michaels: I often go to sleep and dream of waking up in a world where everything is covered in semen.

Officer Slater: I mean, who doesn't? It's like your wish that you could walk out of a room and just know where the semen was. You just know like Sherlock Holmes, if he was in his day, Sherlock Holomes, in his day... And this is a proven historical fact. Sherlock Holmes, when he was alive, knew where semen was.

Officer Michaels: Could smell it out like a rat.

Officer Slater: Smell it out. ANything

Officer Michaels: Like the crime scene today, if the man had ejaculated and then punched you in the face, we'd have a real good shot at catching him...

Officer Slater: No way,

Officer Michaels: Just punched you in the face. No semen.

Officer Slater: Yeah, no semen. And that's the only way you can find DNA by the way, if it's in the jizz.

Officer Michaels: Semen. It's the best DNA, is in the jizz.

Officer Slater: I'm telling you right now, sometimes I just want to make you know, live in a world of semen. That's funny you say that because I feel the same same way...

Officer Michaels: It's true

Officer Slater: I would make semen snowballs...

Officer Michaels: It would just make our lives easier if everything was covered in semen.

Officer Slater: Yeah, no crime.

Officer Michaels: Just semen. FUck, that'd be nice.

Officer Slater: I think we've exhausted this point. Sherlock Holmes, in his day, would look at you and say: "Five nights ago, Veronica Shear, USA Up All Night."

Officer Michaels: Four ounces.

Officer Slater: I know that, four ounces into your hand.

Officer Michaels: One time we found semen, one time.

Fogell: I thought you said you never found semen.

Officer Slater: One time we found semen, one time we found semen, we've got really excited, took it back to the lab, turned out it was Michaels' semen.
