Hilarious! Hilarious! Hilarious! Hilarious! You made me laugh Lin. Cheeseburger in Paradise..... Hilarious! Hilarious!
Video, video, video sounds right for the wrens. I just came in from outside where one of the wrens was singing Chim-i-nee, chim-i-nee. Hilarious! Hilarious!
That's what I never understand about when the ornithologists write what the birds call sounds like. I can never get diddly out of those "written sounds". Why don't they write it like human words so we really get an idea of what the heck the calls sound like? One I have seen written in plain english is the Carolina Wren. They say the Carolina wren sings teakettle, teakettle but I'll be darned if I've ever heard one singing teakettle & I've listened real hard to try to get teakettle out of it. Of course, now, with the internet & sights like All About Birds; we can actually listen to the different calls. Makes thing much easier.
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
