Oh look, it’s entirely possible for a cisgender comedian to crack jokes about transgender people without being transphobic.
You walk up to the tournament setup and I’m wearing this

Pigeon wings under a UV light
“The secret invisible light we cannot directly perceive creates beautiful vaguely rune-like shaped on the religiously significant appendages of an otherwise mundane animal” yeah get out of here, tone down the fantasy vibes a little bit, that’s too much. Oh wait that’s reality? … Well then.
It’s probably been said in the notes, but this isn’t a natural UV color! This is a racing stamp lighting up under UV, which means this little guy is a racing pigeon!
Here’s Martha, the winning bird from the 2017 Arona Derby
And a more complex stamp in normal colors:
The stamps are used to verify the pigeons before and after, with a fairly complicated matching process in some cases
Which is understandable! Some of these birds are worth thousands of dollars, and winning the races can also be worth thousands of dollars. In fact, the most expensive bird, and I mean most expensive period across all species, was a racing pigeon sold for over a million dollars!
So maybe not natural but certainly still cool!
