I have a long paragraph of philosophic reflections I would very much like to include here about bird sounds but I will refrain from it until a later time. I want the submissions to the study by all who reading this (you are planning to send them something, right?) to be untarnished by my purple prose and pub philosophy. The more honest, open, and individual each of our respective submissions is, the more comprehensive and rich the results of the study can potentially be. I can hardly wait to read the results. Peace and good bird watching. by Born Again Bird Watcher at 7:24 2 Labels: Aberdeen, Birdsong, Listening, Study Links to this post Toyota MR2 Spyder Toyota Paseo Toyota Pickup Thursday, 29, Consider the Bushtit The other day as I was sitting in the library working on an article, I heard a soft flutter from just beyond the open window. The chickadees, nuthatches, and kinglets had been active for most of the day at the feeders further out in the yard, so I first assumed that it was simply another of one or more of these returning for a mid-afternoon snack. Then I heard it again – soft, blurry, and not at all like any of the formerly noted species that arrive with either a call or a snapping of either wings or twigs far louder than their size should produce.
