Kyow, Kii-ow,

Gull, she sings the sea,

Coo-ah, coo, coo, coo,

Dove, cries her woes to me.

 

Seeadit, chew-chew,

House Sparrow chatters through the day,

Wheeeeer, wheet!

House Finch argues with quite a lot to say.

 

Pelican doesn’t say much, but wings beat with a

Thwap thwap thwap thwap,

And the Mallard that shares her home gives a,

Rasping kreeeep, quack!

 

What’s that sound like sci-fi guns? Hummingbird’s

Chiiick, chee-chee-chee-chee,

And though I’ve never heard one yet, I’d love to hear a

Chick-a-dee-dee-dee!
