Question #690


How many bird calls do you recognize? Can you hear birds in the morning where you are?

A few calls such as a loon, whiperwill, mockingbird. We have more birds now than when we moved in 5 years ago. As we add more trees, plants and things they are coming around more and more. Also see an occasional white or blue herring.

Doves are about the lonely one I know. Doves build Condos in my back yard. The big black birds won't leave them alone.

Okay, here goes, I can recognize several: grackles, mockingbirds, mourning doves, whiporwills. Oh, I can recognize a loon and a red tailed hawk and screech owl. I think that's it.

The only Birdcalls I recognize are the birdcalls I do myself. I don't know the what type of birds they are. I can hear the birds in the morning.

I don't recognize a single bird call, but I love to hear them talking in the mornings. It's great to sit in the backyard with a cup of coffee in the early Saturday morning hours and just hear the birds and all of the other critters waking for the day! We are right next to a lake and have several geese and ducks that call out to each other as the sun comes up. It's pretty cool to me!

I recognize Cardinals, Blue Jays, Mockingbirds, Mourning Doves, Ducks and Geese, Bob-whites, Kildeers, red-wing-blackbirds, owls of various types .... etc.

We only get to hear the birds if the windows are open ... and I love being able to have the windows open!!
