Unusually vocal blackbird
on: December 08, 2016, 07:08:58 AM
This post belongs in Anything but Piano, but I cannot attach an mp3 there.

A male blackbird seems to spend most of the day singing from the neighbour's television aerial. Blackbirds do sing, but this one's song is varied, more like that of a thrush, and he keeps at it all day.

Thanks for posting that musical bird,Ted. Maybe you should do a "Messiaen" and turn it into piano music!

It would be very easy to find twenty-three more blackbirds around here, but I do not find the prospect of the pie remotely dainty.

I've never eaten even one blackbird.  Wonder if they taste like chicken?????????????
