Bird Talk
Spent an hour out on my sister’s patio that is a few yards from the draw. This is the bird conversation that I overheard:
Beaver, beaver, beaver, beaver
chip chip chip chip
Whee whee whee whee
daring do, daring do, daring do, daring do
cherry cherry cherry cherry
who’re you? who’re you? who’re you? who’re you?
chip chip chip chip chip chip chip chip
Pretty bird. Pretty pretty pretty
choo choo choo choo choo choo choo choo
wheet wheet
cheerio cheerio cheerio cheerio
beaver, beaver, beaver, beaver, beaver, beaver.
pretty pretty pretty pretty
trrrrrrrr trrrrrrrr trrrrrrr trrrrr

chee chee chee chee chee chee chee

Peter, Peter, Peter, Peter, Peter, Peter
whilygig? whirlygig? whirlygig? whirlygig?
Does anyone know any of these bird languages?

This guy shared the terrace with me but was silent.
As was this guy.
And this is another silent denizen of the terrace. I’m sure you all know my lingo, however.
